HYSAN DEVELOPMENT CO LTD AND OTHERS v. TOWN PLANNING BOARD

Citation

HYSAN DEVELOPMENT CO LTD AND OTHERS v. TOWN PLANNING BOARD
Court

Court of Appeal
Case number

CACV232/2012

The Court held the cross‑appeal was academic in light of the Court's determination of the appeal and therefore made no order on the cross‑appeal except that there would be no order as to costs; the Court ordered the Town Planning Board to pay Hysan 2/3 of the costs of the appeal and 3/4 of the costs below, with certificate for two counsel, such costs to be taxed if not agreed, and reduced Hysan's recoverable costs to reflect time spent on constitutionality and ultra vires arguments.
