1. This is an interpleader summons where both the 1st plaintiff and the claimant were making claims to the proceeds of goods seized and sold by auction by a bailiff; the gross proceeds of sale amounted to HK$ 139,350.00. Right from the outset, the claimant conceded that the expenses incurred by the 1st plaintiff in the sum of HK$ 47,430.00 in execution of writ of fi fa should be paid out of the proceeds of sale, and would only challenge the balance of it.
