THE OFFICIAL RECEIVER v. CHOW TUNG SHAN

Citation

[2020] HKCFI 1139
Court

Court of First Instance
Case number

HCMP1334/2018

Leave to appeal was refused because there was no reasonable prospect of success and no interest of justice to hear the appeal; the judge's factual findings (including unpaid MPF contributions) and legal interpretation of s.168H and s.168I were sound, conduct need not be limited to insolvency‑connected matters, and a one year disqualification was appropriate.
