The Execution Summons seeking leave to issue execution against Ilan Samuel is in the nature of an action (it determines substantive liability) so Samuel is a 'defendant' for Order 23, rule 1; the Plaintiff is a foreign plaintiff; balancing the interests and prospects, the Court exercised its discretion to order security for costs of HK$150,000 and stayed the Execution Summons until security is furnished.
