- Citation
- [2022] HKCFI 1452
- Court
- Court of First Instance
- Case number
- HCA1840/2019
The appeal is dismissed because it is academic (the substantive result — setting aside the Default Judgment — was already achieved) and the Defendant failed to show the rare and exceptional circumstances necessary for the court to exercise its discretion to entertain an academic appeal; consequently the appeal will not be heard and costs are to follow the event.
