- Citation
- [2025] HKCFI 5736

The court made a costs order nisi requiring Digital B-School China Limited to pay the petition costs to China Europe International Business School, CEIBS Publishing Group Limited, and the Official Receiver, subject to taxation if not agreed and with a certificate for two counsel.
