Bankruptcy trustees of Chen Yen Fei v Lee Yuk Suet & others
HK Court of First Instance, 10-Apr-2024
The ex-Chairman of Pa Shun (0574) was declared bankrupt on 18-Jun-2020 but on 31-Jul-2020 he and his wife Lee Yuk Suet obtained an ancillary relief order in their divorce, ordering transfer of certain shares and properties from him to her. They claim that he was all along holding the assets in trust for her after an oral separation agreement in 2003, but the court does not believe this, so the assets go to the bankruptcy trustees.

Re admission of Timothy Wynn Owen KC to defend Jimmy Lai Chee Ying in NSL case
HK Court of Final Appeal, 28-Nov-2022
Application for leave to appeal is dismissed. The court writes: "in relation to ad hoc admissions, where national security considerations properly arise, such considerations are plainly of the highest importance to be taken into account. In the present case, however, the SJ has fundamentally changed his case only at the stage of seeking leave to appeal to this Court, raising undefined and unsubstantiated issues said to involve national security which were not mentioned or explored in the Courts below."
