女人嘅青春值幾錢？如果係都要將呢段日子加上價錢碼，我希望係⋯⋯

喺普通法要湊成一份合約，要啲咩條件？ 教科書話，要有 agreement between two parties, 要有足夠嘅 certainty，要有 consideration，要有 intention to create legal relations，之類。

YU MAN FUNG ALICE (于文鳳) v CHIAU SING CHI STEPHEN (周星馳) [2020] HKCFI 2923

呢個 case 主要爭論就係關於某口頭協議有冇 intention to create legal relations。如果唔記得咗相關嘅法律原則，判詞有幾段寫得好清楚。

然後，進入花生部份喇！

學連登仔話齋，所有男女問題都係「勞資糾紛」，咁呢單案又係點玩法呢？

原告人于文鳳 1997/98 年開始同周星馳拍拖，2002 辭埋職，幫周打理啲投資嘢。周會每個月俾「人工」于，一開始每月 $20,000，之後 $43,000，最後係 $59,000。呢筆錢基本上冇乜爭拗。

另外，于做周星馳女朋友嘅時候，有口頭協議可以得到佢買賣物業嘅 10% 利潤。最後，基於種種對原告不利嘅因素，法官認為原告未能證明兩日作出呢個口頭協議時有意圖形成法律關係，所以周星馳俾于文鳳嘅錢，都係情侶之間嘅「禮物」。

咁，做周星馳女朋友可以「賺」到幾多錢？


前前後後都 cap 咗兩千萬。

最後鬧分手嘅時候，于係咁申索其他物業嘅利潤。周怕咗于，周再俾咗一千萬「分手費」。

計埋之前嘅「月薪」，周前後俾咗三千幾萬俾于。

一開始于同周拍拖嗰陣，于仲未辭職，但都會花時間幫周打理物業投資嘅嘢。一開始完全係任勞任怨，冇任何回報嘅。去到 2002 年，全職幫周，都只係收 $20000。當時于嘅哥哥都忍唔住問：「你係咪會同周結婚？唔係花咁多時間有咩回報？」講到呢度，我不禁感嘆愛情嘅偉大⋯⋯起碼一開始係咁。但係，隨住年月過去，于向周攞嘅錢越嚟越多，根據法官覆述案情，「分手」係于大約喺 2010 年提出嘅，當時佢有個新男朋友。分手後，于向周索取幾千萬嘅「佣金」。愛不夠，唯有用錢去填補。但去到最後，完全冇愛嘅時候，用幾多錢都填補唔到。

女人嘅青春值幾錢？如果係都要將呢段日子加上價錢碼，我希望係⋯⋯

btw, 原告人嘅大狀竟然係前律政司司長⋯ 吖睇嚟佢返返去 private practice 都撈得唔錯喎。

Trump v. CASA, Inc. et al.

The recent Trump case was one of the most eye-opening and confusing judgments I've read. For context, Trump signed an executive order to re-interpret "birthright" citizenship limiting it to children born in USA by at least one parent with US citizenship. A couple district courts ordered preliminary injunctions against its enforcement. The government eventually argued to the Supreme Court that the preliminary injunctions were too broad in scope. The court with an apparently 6:3 majority decided that the lower courts had no right to award "universal injunctions" beyond the scope of the plaintiffs seeking the injunction. Federal courts' power to issue injunctions apparently stems from the Judiciary Act of 1789, which endowed federal courts with jurisdiction over "all suits... in equity". This is nothing exciting, except that the USSC then declares that the scope of "equity" is basically the jurisdiction of the High Court of Chancery in Engla...

南丫海難唔夠救生衣祭旗案

HKSAR v. SO PING CHI [2018] HKCA 913 我好少睇完上訴庭判詞唔夠喉睇埋原審判詞。真係痴孖根。 泛民議員涂謹申又走出嚟做show扮爭取正義，但事實就係海事處同業界一早有共識，舊船可以延後執行新例。 喺審訊時，新例實施時嘅海事處處長竟然冇出庭作供(起碼判詞冇提佢)，冇人知佢係咪知情；而港九電船拖輪商會嘅主席又「唔記得」幾時同海事處邊啲官員討論過「舊船用舊例」。後嚟海事處執正嚟做，商會仲發起示威，反對執行新例。留意，新例實施日期係 2007 年 1 月 2 號，示威日期係 2013 年 3 月。中間隔咗 6 年。可見喺呢 6 年以嚟 (包括南丫海難發生之後)，業界一直都認為舊船唔需要跟新例配備足夠救生衣。呢樣嘢唔只係海事處一個官員嘅行為嚟， 而係根本海事處同業界有共識唔去執法 ！ 被告上任嗰陣，好明顯呢個共識已經存在。話佢冇叫停呢個做法，技術上佢的確犯法，但點解得佢一個俾人告？我懷疑係因為佢份人最誠實。 案中證供指出，被告喺出事之後其中一個會議嗰度好誠實咁承認自己俾過下屬咁嘅指示。然後佢就俾人捉咗去祭旗。 至於其他被傳召作供嘅證人，雖然原審話話佢哋誠實可信，但我見到嘅係佢哋喺有啲關鍵地方記憶模糊。法庭話佢哋誠實可信就係誠實可信，我只係話佢哋記性真係幾差咁解。 上訴庭輕判，主要原因都係睇唔過眼。佢哋差在冇講「屌你玩嘢呀？成個海事處都知有咁嘅事，你淨係交一個人俾我，仲要蝦佢老實？唔撚係呀？」（見最後引文） 至於點解冇人喺審訊期間爆其他人大鑊，咁被告的確有叫人唔好執行新例，的確係犯咗法，佢再督多啲人出嚟都唔見得有好處，反而只會喺公務員內部處分俾人玩得更慘烈。而其他人喺關鍵時刻失憶，律政司又未必有足夠證據起訴其他人（或者有 #其他原因 唔起訴啦？），咁咪淨係搵咗個老實人祭旗囉。 原審同上訴庭都一再重申被告品格良好，甚至係「無可挑剔」 "impeccable character"，你都明啦。 講真，馬後炮就好易嘅。你睇個商會喺南丫海難出事之後仲可以示威反對嚴格執行新例，就知道未出事嗰陣，邊個夠膽揸正嚟做都係會下場慘淡啦。 最後引返上訴庭判詞原文。祝各位公務員官運亨通，步步高昇！我真係恭喜你哋呀！ （話時話，點解報告唔出得街，我堅係唔知，不如你哋又估下點解？） /// 70. However, it is the third fa...

Reconciling apparent inconsistencies within the Basic Law -- what is the proper approach?

What happens when two different pieces of legislation contradict each other? In common law, one could apply the principle of "implied repeal", where the subsequent legislation would be considered to have repealed the earlier one. But the Basic Law has not undergone amendments since its promulgation in 1990, so this does not apply. Another common way to resolve apparent contradictions is to consider that the more general provision be qualified by the more specific one. Yet in cases where fundamental rights are at issue, courts may instead adopt a " generous interpretation ", restricting the scope of those provisions that appear to restrict fundamental rights. Indeed, this was the approach laid out by the Court of Final Appeal in 1999 in Ng Ka Ling : The courts should give a generous interpretation to the provisions in Chapter III that contain these constitutional guarantees in order to give to Hong Kong residents the full measure of fundamental rights and freedoms so...
