The court held the limitation endorsement related only to common law liability and, given the existence of two contemporaneous policies covering the same type of liability, the only sensible construction was that the policies were intended to operate as layers producing a combined liability ceiling of HK$300,000; accordingly the plaintiff was entitled to HK$299,022.89 plus interest and costs.
