The defendant withdrew the summons for stay and failed to demonstrate an arguable appeal or any basis to depart from the general rule that the withdrawing party bears the costs; public interest did not justify a stay in this private law dispute; accordingly the defendant must pay the plaintiff's costs, with a certificate for two counsel and specific adjustments to disallowed items, fixed at HK$400,000.
