- HCA2308/2006
Service by insertion into the letter-box on 8 October 2007 was invalid because the defendant was not in Hong Kong on that date; the seven-day deeming provision cannot be postponed to commence upon the defendant's later return; therefore the default judgment of 8 November 2007 was irregular and must be set aside unconditionally.
