    J & T INTERNATIONAL LTD v. ZHANG CHENG AND OTHERS

    Citation
    [2026] HKDC 220
    Court
    District Court
    Case number
    DCMP4564/2025

    The court granted access because the plaintiff's provisional expert reports provided a prima facie basis to include Kam Tong Building as a possible source of seepage; the relief sought was limited to access for testing, not determination of liability or expert methodology, and therefore access was appropriate while leaving choice of experts and testing methodology to the parties; costs orders were made to require the plaintiff to bear defendants' reasonable costs of compliance and indemnity costs to D1 and D2 of HK$35,000.
