Reasons for Decision of the High Court of Hong Kong in the case HCCT 31/2018 dated 3 October 2018
High Court of the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region, Court of First Instance
- Decision summary
- The Court held that it had jurisdiction under section 45 of the Arbitration Ordinance to grant an appropriate interim measure against a third party in aid of the Singapore arbitration, but refused the plaintiffs' application to appoint receivers over Company G shares held by Company F. The Court found no sufficient risk of dissipation, no clear evidence of breach warranting receivership, and an adequate less intrusive remedy; it ordered the plaintiffs to pay the defendants' and Company F's costs.
