Summary

The respondent husband applied to vary a costs order nisi made after the court dismissed his jurisdictional challenge in matrimonial proceedings. He argued the costs order should be varied in light of parallel proceedings in New Jersey. The court found no reason to depart from costs following the event and dismissed the variation application, with costs summarily assessed at HK$60,000.
