- HCA10541/2000
The contractual documents signed by the defendant constituted the memorandum required by s.18; the breaches were technical and unintentional and did not cause real prejudice so the court exercised its s.18(3) discretion to enforce the loans; there were no special circumstances to pierce the corporate veil; Okachi HK did not breach duties in handling the margin accounts; the plaintiff did not fail to mitigate; and amendments to plead illegality under HKSE Rules or Cap.333 were refused because those provisions do not render the contracts civilly unenforceable.
