- HCA2998/2017
Appeals were not mere regurgitations of Master hearings; the court applied a broad brush summary assessment, reduced professional hours and two‑counsel fees as disproportionate, summarily assessed total appeal costs at HK$700,000 (including reserved Directions Hearing costs), ordered the Direction Summons costs to be in the cause, and assessed the trivial Costs Summons at HK$5,000 to be set off against the Petitioner’s award.
