LAM TAM LUEN v. ASIA TELEVISION LTD
- Citation
- LAM TAM LUEN v. ASIA TELEVISION LTD
- Court
- Court of Appeal
- Case number
- CACV202/2006
The amendment was not a new cause of action because the original pleadings already relied on negligence in broad terms and the core act or omission complained of (failure to keep the deceased's identity confidential in the broadcast) remained unchanged; therefore the trial judge did not err in allowing the amendment and the appeal was dismissed.
