    TSE CHIU KWAN AND ANOTHER v. ARTPLUS INVESTMENT LTD
    Court
    Court of First Instance
    Case number
    HCMP2069/2007

    The court exercised its discretion under s122(1B) to regularise the late laying of accounts for each company because the non-compliance was historical and bona fide, attributable to reliance on professionals and administrative delay rather than wilful default, no prejudice was shown given sole ownership by the directors, and remedial steps including appointment of new auditors indicated likely future compliance.
