Two QCs, Four Barristers Engaged In
CLAIM FOR DISSOLUTION OF HOTEL PARTNERSHIP
A claim for the dissolution of a hotel partnership in which two Queen's Counsel and four other Barristers with their instructing Solicitors appeared for the 18 litigants was brought before Mr Justice James Wicks in the Supreme Court this morning.
Scores of law books filled Counsel's table while four bundles of documents, Man's Pack numbering 170 in all, were produced.
The claim is for the dissolution of the Nam Ping (On Kee) Hotel of Nos. 139-147, Des Voeux Road, Central, which was established in 1934, with a share capital of $18,500.
