The appellant, Shiu Yiu Kong, appealed the dismissal of his application for an oppression remedy under the OBCA and CBCA.
The Court of Appeal found no error in the application judge’s consideration of the statutory provisions, legal principles, or factual findings.
The court held that the appellant’s criticisms of the companies’ books and records did not amount to oppressive conduct, especially as the supporting evidence was inadmissible opinion evidence.
The real dispute was over the price and method of share purchase, which did not warrant court intervention.
The appeal was dismissed, and costs were awarded to the respondents.
