    FCMP38/2020

    Applying a broad brush assessment and having discounted inflated claims, the court allowed direct undertakings from the father for school and medical expenses and ordered periodical maintenance of HK$250,000 per month (rounded from an assessed total of HK$241,040) to reflect the child's reasonable needs and the father's wealth, with lump sum/set-up claims mostly rejected as refundable to father given mother’s overspending and lack of justification.
