Security for costs was ordered in the reduced sum of HK$280,000 because the court found the plaintiffs' original estimate required further reduction to reflect substantial overlap between the appeal and the leave application, excessive claimed hourly rates for two fee earners warranted downward adjustment, and general risk of some items being taxed down; accordingly HK$280,000 was a proportionate security amount with seven days to pay and with dismissal of the appeal if security not provided.
