Citation

[2022] HKCFI 3340
Court

Court of First Instance
Case number

HCAL1086/2022

The application for leave was dismissed because the proposed grounds were not reasonably arguable: the DC acted within its broad case‑management discretion, the Applicant failed to identify or produce witness statements or to seek subpoenas to show a material dispute of fact, the non‑binding Guidelines did not override the DC's discretion, and even if the creditors' minutes were accepted the contemporaneous statements of account showed the Applicant had paid himself in excess of any purported authorisation.

Court of First Instance

HCCW279/2010

The Notice of Appeal was dismissed because the 21 August 2015 order had not been sealed and the Master's oral remarks and the dismissed clarification summons did not constitute an appealable determination; a sealed order or a written taxation determination is required before an appeal can be entertained.
