Na and Tiu

Na and Tiu involved a dispute between two parties, Na and Tiu, which was brought before the Court. The nature of the dispute centred on an application filed by Na on 4 December 2017. The Court was tasked with determining whether the application should be granted or dismissed and, if dismissed, the associated costs. The legal issues the Court had to decide included whether Na's application had merit and, if not, whether Na should bear the costs of the application. The Court was also required to consider the appropriate amount of costs to be imposed on Na if the application was dismissed.

The Court found that Na's application did not have merit and should be dismissed. The Court was satisfied that Na had no reasonable prospects of success and that there were no other compelling reasons why the application should proceed. Consequently, the Court ordered that the application be dismissed and that Na pay the respondent’s costs. The Court assessed the costs and determined that the fixed sum of $800 was appropriate, considering the nature and complexity of the application. The form of the order was subject to its entry in the Court's records, ensuring that the terms were accurately reflected and enforceable.
