- Case number
- HCCL56/2001
The court declined to grant summary judgment because the issues raised (documentary discrepancy over the Certificate of Origin and the alleged Chinese property preservation order / illegality defence) were not sufficiently straightforward and raised triable issues requiring evidence and possibly expert opinion; accordingly unconditional leave to defend was granted and the matter ordered to proceed to trial, with costs of the application to be costs in the cause and the certificate for two counsel refused.
