Read the full judgment text of HCMP 2033/2001 on BabelCite. This High Court CFI judgment was delivered on 24 October 2001.
1. I do not propose to give a lengthy judgment in this case. This is an application for leave to appeal out of time. The reasons for the delay have been explained. There have been two episodes of delay and I am satisfied that these can largely be put at the door of the legal advisers and not at the door of the plaintiff.

_______________________ Coram: Hon. Rogers, VP, and Le Pichon, JA in Court Date of Hearing: 24 October 2001 Date of Judgment: 24 October 2001 _______________________ J U D G M E N T _______________________ Hon. Rogers VP: 1.I do not propose to give a lengthy judgment in this case. This is an application for leave to appeal out of time. The reasons for the delay have been explained. There have been two episodes of delay and I am satisfied that these can largely be put at the door of the legal advisers and not at the door of the plaintiff. 2.In so far as there are merits in this case, it seems to me that this is a matter which needs to go to an appeal for those merits to be decided. On my view of the situation, this is a case where there should be a full appeal on this matter. I would therefore extend time for appealing, accordingly. Hon. Le Pichon JA: 3.I agree.
Representation: Mr John Wright, instructed by Messrs Miller Peart, for the Plaintiff/ Applicant Ms Alice Tsang, instructed by Messrs Tsang, Chan & Wong, for the Defendants/Respondents |
