    FCMP248/2021

    Court accepted applicant's budgetary items but apportioned general household costs half to the child, accepted child's personal costs and reasonable extra activities, yielding a monthly need of HKD9,607; because respondent failed to disclose finances in breach of court orders the court imputed an ability to pay (supported by respondent's own statement of monthly casual earnings HKD18,900) and ordered respondent to pay HKD9,607 per month into applicant's CSSA bank account from 1 June 2024 until the child is 18 or ceases full‑time education, together with costs to the applicant.
