    楊曉虹 v. BALLANI, BIPIN KISHINCHAND

    Citation
    [2026] HKLdT 16
    Court
    Lands Tribunal
    Case number
    LDPD181/2026

    The review is dismissed because the misnomer in the Notice was a genuine, immaterial mistake that did not mislead the respondent or cause prejudice and was properly corrected; parallel Small Claims proceedings did not prevent the Tribunal from deciding possession and arrears; allegations of trespass/theft fall outside the Tribunal’s jurisdiction; and the tenant’s deposit claim was unsustainable in light of antecedent breach and the tenancy terms permitting deduction — therefore the original judgment ordering vacant possession and arrears stands and the review fails.
