    The adjournment was granted because the defendant's medical condition justified delay, but to protect the plaintiffs from prejudice the court imposed conditional terms: the defendant must pay into court HK$2,267,000 within 28 days, submit to psychiatric examination by psychiatrists nominated by the plaintiffs at his expense on seven days' notice, and pay the costs occasioned by the adjournment.
