    FACE IT LTD v. LUK MEI LING AND OTHERS

    Citation
    [2019] HKCFI 1416
    Court
    Court of First Instance
    Case number
    HCA299/2019

    The court found that the customer particulars and communication records, given their collation, use and contractual non-disclosure clauses, possessed the necessary quality of confidentiality; there was sufficient evidence that defendants retained and used such information to solicit customers for a competing business; damages would be inadequate and the balance of convenience favored equitable protection; accordingly interlocutory relief for delivery up and a negative injunction was granted subject to a fortified cross-undertaking of HK$1,000,000.
