Dismissal/stay
  • 16 Mar 2021

    CHEN HONGQING v. ASIA CEMENT CORPORATION

    Citation
    [2021] HKCFI 648
    Court
    Court of First Instance
    Case number
    HCMP962/2017

    The court dismissed HCMP 962/2017 and released the parties from the undertakings because the arbitration was finally determined and the Undertakings were expressly pending determination of the arbitration; the joinder and injunction applications were refused because Chen Hongqing's pleaded cases were contradictory, inherently incredible and therefore bound to fail such that there was no serious issue to be tried; security for costs was ordered to reflect a broad-brush estimate of defendable party-and-party costs (HK$1,650,000 + RMB200,000).
