Citation

DAMON NEICH-BUCKLEY AND OTHERS v. CATHAY PACIFIC AIRWAYS LTD AND ANOTHER
Court

Court of First Instance
Case number

HCA299/2006

The judge held that the impugned passages of Warham's WS and SWS were properly struck out because they went beyond permissible background, were irrelevant to the pleaded factual issues, and contained inadmissible opinion, hearsay, expert and legal submissions; accordingly the strike‑out summonses succeeded and paragraph 24 of Rhodes' statement was also struck out, with costs ordered against the plaintiffs.

The application was granted in part: the court held that the plaintiffs are entitled to particulars of positive allegations pleaded in para.7 of the defence (including particulars sought in requests 1,3,4,5(ii),6) because they are matters of allegation not mere evidence and are necessary to prepare for trial; requests for particulars of mere non-admissions or denials (requests 2 and 7) were refused; defendant to amend defence (including deleting para.16 and clarifying wages in para.6).
