張秀賢不服破產令提上訴 官下令先交11萬保證金 違令即駁回上訴兼付訟費
Former Chinese University of Hong Kong student union president and Yuen Long District Councillor Tommy Sau Yin Cheung was ordered bankrupt by the High Court in July 2024 for failing to repay $140,000 owed to Lai Tak-chung, former chairman of the Liberal Studies Subject Committee of the Hong Kong Examinations and Assessment Authority. Cheung is challenging the order and has applied to submit new evidence, while Lai has asked Cheung to first provide about $120,000 as security for costs.
The Court of Appeal handed down its judgment on the security on Wednesday (the 17th), ruling that Cheung had failed to prove that he was able to repay the debt. If he wishes to pursue the appeal, he must pay $110,000 into court as security within 30 days. Failure to comply with the order will result in the appeal being dismissed, and he will also be required to pay the costs.

許智峯遭頒令破產 兼須支付訟費 許曾聲言對生活、財政「毫無影響」
Former Legislative Council member Ted Hui, who announced in 2020 that he was going into exile overseas and is wanted by the authorities, was the subject of a bankruptcy petition filed by the Department of Justice in the High Court in November 2023. The case was heard in the High Court on Tuesday (6th), with neither Hui nor the Department of Justice represented in court.
Master Yu Kai-chiu said all the Department of Justice’s documents had been served and that Hui had not responded. He therefore ordered Hui to be declared bankrupt with immediate effect and to pay the legal costs. In response, the Department of Justice confirmed that the bankruptcy petition was related to Hui’s failure to pay legal costs, and said it would continue to pursue the relevant amount in accordance with the law, declining further comment.
According to information reviewed, Hui said on his personal Facebook page at the end of 2023 that he was in Australia and had been admitted as a lawyer by an Australian court. Regarding the Department of Justice’s bankruptcy petition, Hui said bankruptcy proceedings in Hong Kong would have “no impact whatsoever” on his life or finances in Australia.

聆案官余啟肇指，律政司所有文件已送達，對方沒回應，故頒令許即時破產，並須付訟費。律政司回覆時確認，破產呈請與許未支付訟費有關，又指將依法繼續追討有關款項，不作其他評論。
翻查資料，許智峯 2023 年底在個人 Facebook 專頁提及身在澳洲，並獲澳洲法庭認許為律師。對於律政司的破產呈請，許稱在港的破產申請對其澳洲生活、財政「毫無影響」。

許智峯遭律政司入稟申請破產 排期明年初處理 藐視法庭等3案被裁須付訟費
Former Legislative Council member Ted Hui, who announced in 2020 that he was going into exile overseas and is wanted by the authorities, was served with a bankruptcy petition filed by the Department of Justice in the High Court on Thursday (23rd). According to the Judiciary’s website, the bankruptcy petition is scheduled to be dealt with at 3 p.m. on 23 January 2024.
The Department of Justice alleged that Hui provided incorrect information to the police, causing the police and the court to believe that he would return to Hong Kong after travelling to Denmark. In 2022, the High Court convicted him in his absence on four counts of criminal contempt of court, sentencing him to three and a half years’ imprisonment and ordering him to pay costs. Hui also brought two other applications: one was found to be an abuse of process, while the other, an application for judicial review, failed. He was ordered to pay costs in both cases.
In addition, Hui said in April 2022 that he had received notification from the police that the High Court had granted the Department of Justice an asset restraint order prohibiting him and his family from dealing with, selling, or removing property from Hong Kong.
2020 年宣布流亡海外、正被通緝的立法會前議員許智峯，周四（23 日）被律政司入稟高等法院作破產呈請。根據司法機構網頁顯示，破產呈請排期於 2024 年 1 月 23 日下午 3 時處理。
律政司指控許向警方提供錯誤資訊，令警方和法庭相信他出訪丹麥後會回港；高院於 2022 年在許缺席聆訊下，裁定他 4 項刑事藐視法庭罪成， 判監 3 年半兼須付訟費。許另有兩宗入稟，一宗被指濫用程序，另一宗申請司法覆核失敗，均被下令須付訟費。
另外，許於 2022 年 4 月指收到警方通知，律政司獲高院批出財產限制令，禁止他及其家人處理、賣出或從香港移走財產。
