The court dismissed the 1st defendant's summons to adduce fresh evidence on appeal (Ladd v Marshall test not satisfied); found the written loan documents genuine and the 1st defendant's primary sham/investment defence not credible or insufficiently particularised; held the extortionate interest argument was not properly pleaded or evidenced; but accepted there was a triable dispute as to the exact computation of outstanding sums, so entered partial judgment for HKD 52,255,464.56 and granted unconditional leave to defend as to the balance.
