Interim payment granted for arrears from 1 December 2004 to 31 May 2005 (HK$333,000) and for ongoing occupation at HK$55,500 per month because the plaintiffs met the high standard under O.29 r.12(c) for that period given the weakness and implausibility of the defendant's oral rent-free defence, absence of set-off/counterclaim, the property's unencumbered status and defendant's weak financial position; interim payment was refused for Aug–Nov 2004 because the plaintiffs' case on that period was inconsistent and the evidence did not satisfy the threshold.
