[Costs] SJ to pay costs in sentencing review in the Umbrella Movement Trio case
In SECRETARY FOR JUSTICE v. CHOW YONG KANG ALEX (FACC10/2017), the CFA held that the Secretary for Justice should pay costs. It held that, if the issues were one of public interest, which they clearly were, this is all the more justification for awarding the successful appellants the costs of resisting the sentence review (since they should have prevailed in the Court of Appeal).
