    Court of First Instance
    Case number
    HCCW9/1979

    The court exercised its discretion to grant a short extension and adjourn the petitions because counsel's bona fide unavailability and a genuine dispute justified a limited delay to allow the matters to be heard on their merits, while ordering that the costs of the adjournment be borne by the companies seeking the extension and granting specified time limits for evidence and reply.
