ANTHONY MICHAEL SMITH v. THOMPSON BRIGHT LTD

Court

District Court
Case number

DCCJ4673/2021

The Mareva injunction had been continued only until the determination of the assessment of damages on 12 September 2023 and there was no further order continuing it (and it could not have been continued under Order 32 r 11 RDC); therefore the injunction was no longer in effect and the plaintiff's summons to discharge it was misconceived and unnecessary, warranting dismissal of the summons with no order as to costs.

TOP ONE INTERNATIONAL (CHINA) PROPERTY GROUP CO LTD AND ANOTHER v. TOP ONE PROPERTY GROUP LTD AND OTHERS

Citation

TOP ONE INTERNATIONAL (CHINA) PROPERTY GROUP CO LTD AND ANOTHER v. TOP ONE PROPERTY GROUP LTD AND OTHERS
Court

Court of First Instance
Case number

HCA1244/2009

The continuation of the interlocutory orders was supported by ample evidence while the defendants produced no material to justify their applications for discharge; therefore costs should follow the event: the successful parties receive costs in the cause for the interlocutory orders and the defendants must pay the 1st plaintiff's costs of the continuation and discharge applications forthwith, to be taxed if not agreed; a certificate for two counsel is granted where applicable.
