37.  The Plaintiff submits that the defaults / breaches were due to the fault or negligence on the part of TCW, and that TCW had misunderstood the scope of the Unless Order (transcript at A4/53/600E-601B).

“A Letter of Disapproval be sent to Mr. Wong Ting Chun of Messrs. T C Wong & Co (“the Firm”) for breaches of Rules 2(c), (d) and (e) of the Solicitors’ Practice Rules principles 5.12 and 5.17 of the Hong Kong Solicitors’ Guide to Professional Conduct (Volume 1)(3rd Edition) in that he had admitted that he had failed to keep Mr. Chan Chung Sing (“Mr. Chan”) properly informed of the status of the proceedings HCA 1582/2017 (“the Proceedings”) during the period from 12 March 2020 to 14 July 2021, and that he had not exercised reasonable care and skill in handling the Proceedings by failing to attend the hearing of the summons dated 12 March 2020, which was returnable on 13 May 2020 and in preparing the summons dated 8 January 2021.”

39.  Accordingly, most of the defaults / breaches occurred during the period when TCW was found by the Law Society to be at fault.
