- Case number
- DCCJ1068/2004
HKSIFL was joined as an intended party by consent and therefore costs between the parties were adjudicable; both plaintiff and HKSIFL were at fault (plaintiff for consenting to HKSIFL's joinder and failing to exhaust enquiries; HKSIFL for seeking joinder), so costs should be apportioned. The court assessed costs and granted HKSIFL a gross sum costs order nisi of HK$22,500 (half of assessed costs).
