- DCCJ1782/2010
Paragraphs 32–44 and paragraph 45(5)–(7) do not disclose a reasonable cause of action for the $813,600 claim because, on the pleaded facts, the material and independent cause of the losses was the vendor Hamberg's inability to discharge the mortgage; Midland's alleged breaches could at most make it liable for the initial HK$90,000 deposit and related minor costs, not the broader market value and consequential losses claimed.
