Decision of the Court of First Instance of the High Court of the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region in the case HCCT 76/2021 dated 30 December 2021
Court of First Instance of the High Court of the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region
- Citation
- [2021] HKCFI 3900
- Decision summary
- The Court set aside the Enforcement Order that had enforced the emergency arbitrator's relief. It held that the arbitration clause in GD's fifth extension letter was not a valid variation of the Loan Agreement because the letter was signed by GD and HY but not by the other parties, whereas clause 15 required a written amendment signed by all parties. HY's challenge based on lack of proper notice was not pursued at the hearing.
