    HCA1687/2021

    The judge held that C1-C3 were excessive and allowed only HK$50,000 in total, held that D1-D3 were excessive and allowed only HK$30,000, found the remaining items largely reasonable, and therefore summarily assessed and awarded total recoverable costs of HK$126,000; the plaintiff's suggested figure of HK$59,994 was rejected as unrealistic and the without prejudice correspondence and Labour Tribunal documents were excluded from the exercise.
