ANGELA HO & ASSOCIATES (A FIRM) v. KWONG KA YIN t/a PHYLLIS KY KWONG & ASSOCIATES
Court

Court of Appeal
Case number

CACV32/2015

The 2 December 2014 'order nisi' was provisional and did not finally dispose of the proceedings; the final order was made on 12 January 2015, so the 28-day appeal period ran from 12 January 2015 and the Notice of Appeal of 9 February 2015 was timely, therefore the strike-out application failed.

Court of Appeal
Case number

CACV182/1985

The District Judge did not act unlawfully in making the closure order under s.27 of the Buildings Ordinance; the proper remedy against the Building Authority was an appeal (now time-barred), therefore leave to apply for certiorari against the District Judge was rightly refused and the appeal is dismissed.
