    Citation
    LEE KAM CHAN v. LONGWOOD INDUSTRIES LTD.
    Court
    Court of First Instance
    Case number
    HCLA103/1996

    The court granted leave and allowed the appeal, set aside the Presiding Officer's award and remitted the single remaining issue—whether dismissal without notice was justified under section 9 of the Employment Ordinance—to the Labour Tribunal for determination, preferably before the original Presiding Officer (Ms. Maggie Poon) if practicable, because the case was part-heard, there was no suggestion of unconscious bias, and remittal would avoid relitigation of already-decided notice issues.
