- Citation
- [2019] HKCFI 1146
- Court
- Court of First Instance
- Case number
- HCCT29/2013
The sealed judgment was dated and entered on 19 August 2016 and took effect from that date; absent an express court order dating the costs order to a later date, interest on the costs award runs from the date of the sealed judgment, not from the later date when the amount of costs was quantified; Metta had approved the draft judgment and there was no jurisdictional or fairness basis to delay the effective date of the costs order.
