The 1st Defendant was the overall successful party (successful on 49 of 70 disputed items). The Plaintiffs failed to adduce sufficient evidence to displace the presumption that costs follow the event; the Calderbank offer was not produced with terms so could not affect the decision; wasted costs jurisdiction did not apply. After excluding unused photocopy charges and adopting a broad brush summary assessment, the Plaintiffs were ordered to pay the 1st Defendant HK$93,213 forthwith.
