Citation

RICHFINE DEVELOPMENT LTD t/a KENG FAI JEWELLERY v. HUGH RUPERT RIVINGTON
Court

Court of Appeal
Case number

CACV257/2008

Leave to appeal to the Court of Final Appeal was refused because the plaintiff's indemnity claim was not clearly quantifiable at HK$1,000,000 or more for the purposes of s.22(1)(a), and the alternative "or otherwise" ground did not justify granting leave; accordingly the application for leave was dismissed with costs to the defendant.
