- HCA832/2014
The plaintiffs failed to discharge the required cogent evidential burden to prove deceit by Dr Kung; consequentially the pleaded unlawful means conspiracy was not established against all defendants; even accepting some suspicious conduct, there was insufficient proof to implicate the Foundation or the Solicitors in knowingly participating in the conspiracy; no damages awarded and costs ordered against the plaintiffs (with indemnity costs limited to abandoned COSCO claims).
