Citation

[2018] HKFC 198
Court

Family Court
Case number

FCMC9657/2016

The judge refused leave to appeal and dismissed the husband\'s summons because the issues raised (including drafting points and enforceability queries) were not of sufficient weight to justify a stay or appellate hearing; the court retains jurisdiction to enforce or vary its own orders even without a stay, and the husband failed to demonstrate a reasonable prospect of success or other interest of justice under s 63A Cap 336.

Citation

YSYM v. LHB
Court

Court of First Instance
Case number

HCMP1514/2014

Because the Court of Appeal had lawfully determined the leave application on written submissions and made an order under Order 59 r.2A(8) precluding oral reconsideration, and because s.14AB of the High Court Ordinance renders Court of Appeal decisions on leave final, the subsequent summons for leave to appeal to the Court of Final Appeal was impermissible and must be struck out.

HCMP2696/2006

Where disclosure is obtained under Norwich Pharmacal orders limited by express terms to specified purposes, the recipient may not disseminate that material to third parties beyond those purposes; the applicant's disclosure to third parties contrary to the order constituted a breach and justified an immediate stay of the Norwich Pharmacal order pending a fuller hearing on whether the proceedings should be dismissed for abuse of process.

Citation

FONG KA WAI v. WONG CHUN HUNG VINCENT
Court

Court of First Instance
Case number
