Lau Tin Cheung v. Tianjin Development Holdings Ltd

Read the full judgment text of CACV 2/2015 on BabelCite. This Court of Appeal judgment was delivered on 28 April 2015.

1. In my view as the defendant has a reasonably arguable appeal on whether the plaintiff had provided sufficient evidence to support the claim for damage and as the defendant has already paid nearly $2.5 million into Court as condition for the interim stay, I will grant a stay of execution of the judgment on the same terms until the determination of the appeal. Costs of the application be in cause of the appeal.
