CORRIGENDUM

In paragraph 17 of the Judgment, the second and third sentences should read: “This was because Chow opposed the withdrawal by Pih and Lew of the caveat that they had filed in respect of the administration of the deceased’s estate (HCCA 422/1998). On 15 July 2002, Pih and Lew jointly applied to the court for an order that the caveat filed in HCCA 422/1998 was to cease effect.”

In paragraph 18 of the Judgment, the third sentence should read: “As regards the application made by Lew and Pih by way of summons on 15 July 2002 in respect of the withdrawal of the caveat filed by them (HCCA 422/1998), the court ordered that the hearing of the application be adjourned sine die and be restored only after the court delivered judgment in HCAP 6/2005.”
