Appeal allowed in part: the Court found the trial judge undervalued the psychiatric component of harm and wrongly disregarded tips without making any assessment; the Court substituted an award of HK$400,000 for PSLA and recalculated pre-trial loss of earnings at HK$276,000 by accepting a monthly income of HK$10,000 (base HK$7,082.83 plus assessed tips HK$2,000-3,000) and applying 15 months total loss plus 21 months partial loss at reduced sums.
