The court applied Order 62 r28(4A) and the authorities on indemnity‑basis assessments, admitted the late‑filed defendant statement as delay was minor, found the defendant offered no substantive objections to the claimed items, made only modest reductions for non‑complex aspects of the late appeal, and held the plaintiff's claimed costs were not unreasonable or unreasonably incurred; therefore costs were summarily assessed at HK$59,559 payable immediately by the defendant.
