    CHEN HONGQING v. ASIA CEMENT CORPORATION

    Citation
    [2021] HKCFI 648
    Court
    Court of First Instance
    Case number
    HCMP962/2017

    The court dismissed HCMP 962/2017 and released the parties from the undertakings because the arbitration was finally determined and the Undertakings were expressly pending determination of the arbitration; the joinder and injunction applications were refused because Chen Hongqing's pleaded cases were contradictory, inherently incredible and therefore bound to fail such that there was no serious issue to be tried; security for costs was ordered to reflect a broad-brush estimate of defendable party-and-party costs (HK$1,650,000 + RMB200,000).

    HUI YIN SANG AND OTHERS v. TSOI PING KWAN AND OTHERS

    Citation
    HUI YIN SANG AND OTHERS v. TSOI PING KWAN AND OTHERS
    Court
    Court of First Instance
    Case number
    HCA392/2008

    The proposed re-re-re-amendments were dismissed because they were unnecessary and cosmetic, would not materially assist in clarifying the issues and would only expand the trial bundles; accordingly the court refused permission to further amend the Statement of Claim but made no costs order for that dismissed application while upholding the plaintiffs' entitlement to indemnity costs in respect of two earlier defendant applications.

    Citation
    WANG RUIYUN v. GEM GLOBAL YIELD FUND LTD
    Court
    Court of First Instance
    Case number
    HCCL16/2006

    Defendant breached the linked ELC, Escrow and Side Letter agreements by failing to accept and pay for deposited shares and by dumping shares which depressed market price; the draft unsigned Closing Notice was ineffective; the proper pricing period excludes the period after dumping began (9 Feb–1 Mar 2006), producing an average closing price of HK$0.2348, and damages computed by the contractual formula net of amounts received equal HK$128,351,291.56; interest at judgment rate and full indemnity costs were awarded.
