    GE CAPITAL (HONG KONG) LTD v. YUNDA EXPRESS LTD AND ANOTHER

    Citation
    GE CAPITAL (HONG KONG) LTD v. YUNDA EXPRESS LTD AND ANOTHER
    Court
    District Court
    Case number
    DCCJ771/2010

    Summary judgment application dismissed because defendants had not given notice of intention to defend, a prerequisite under O.14 and O.14A; default judgment dismissed as premature because for declaratory relief the plaintiff must proceed under O.13 r.6 (after proving service) and allow defendants time to file a defence, and only thereafter, if no defence is served, apply under O.19 r.7; therefore neither application complied with the procedural requirements and both were dismissed.
