Applying Order 62 rule 28A and established authorities, the court held the husband's claimed bill was grossly excessive compared with customary awards; applying the two-thirds benchmark to an upper-range solicitor cost of HKD 25,000 for comparable applications produced HKD ~16,667, rounded to HKD 17,000, which the court awarded to the husband to be deducted from the wife's share of the net sale proceeds; no order as to the Consent Summons.
