    Court of First Instance

    HCMP2704/1998

    The court held that Tam's claim for consequential loss arising from the aborted purchase of the second property does not fall within Ord 16 r 1(1)(b) but does fall within Ord 16 r 1(1)(c); where questions or issues connected with the original subject matter require determination as between plaintiff, defendant and a third party, the defendant may include consequential loss in third party proceedings, subject to the court's continuing discretion to regulate or set aside such proceedings.
