The court allowed the case to be re-opened for the purpose of obtaining a single joint orthopaedic expert report to determine whether the plaintiff's neck pain was caused by the accident (triggering non-traumatic spondylosis) or was the result of pre-existing degeneration; the court appointed Dr Lau Hoi-Kuen as SJE (subject to Legal Aid approval), directed the report be produced within three months, tentatively fixed a second PTR, and ordered costs in the cause with Legal Aid taxation.
