    LEE KWOK YUN 對 KONG MEI YUNG

    Citation
    [2026] HKCFI 1272
    Court
    Court of First Instance
    Case number
    HCSA50/2025

    The court concluded that the applicant's first ground failed (no credible claim of non-notice absense) but the amended second ground raised an arguable point of law because the Tribunal gave no adequate explanation for rejecting the probative value of the temporal correlation (shutting/repairing upstairs water and cessation of leak); that omission rendered the Tribunal's conclusion arguable as illogical or lacking adequate reasoning, and therefore leave to appeal was granted on that amended ground.
