    KWOK MEI HA MAY v. CHIU YUNG

    Citation
    [2018] HKCFI 462
    Court
    Court of First Instance
    Case number
    HCA3079/2015

    Plaintiff's applications were dismissed because the defendant has arguable equitable defences: there is an arguable constructive trust in favour of Mr Tang and a factual dispute whether his equitable interest was gifted to the defendant and whether the plaintiff had notice; these are triable issues making strike out and summary judgment inappropriate, and Order 14A is unsuitable because questions posed were hypothetical.
