The court held that while the mortgage appears long since time-barred under s19 of the Limitation Ordinance, the plaintiffs failed to prove that Yau Chun Wing was a trustee of FLK or that any trusteeship continued such that the defendant could be held liable; the defendant held only a limited letters of administration de bonis non and had neither been appointed nor accepted trusteeship so O.15 r RHC and Trustee Ordinance s20(2) did not make him liable; consequently the plaintiffs' claims against the defendant were dismissed.
