"When research is being conducted on a particular legal point, the judges, practitioners and academics, like to have a quick entree into the judgment so they know what it's about and whether it's worth reading the whole thing in order to help solve the particular legal problem which they are facing. Headnotes have always had that role, and have always been very popular with lawyers but I think headnotes are even more important now because judgments have become much longer than they used to be."

William S Clarke,Former General Editor, Hong Kong Cases

The only complete series of law reports in Hong Kong - since 1842.

Hong Kong Cases reports judgments which have been carefully selected

based on the legal value of the case, frequently reporting cases with

legal points which might not have been previously dealt with. The

headnotes are drafted to give you a clear and succinct summary of the

material facts and the principle of law applied by the court in reaching its

decision. Reporting case law going back to 1842, this law report series

has been regularly lauded for its style, providing case details and in-depth

analysis with the practitioner in mind.

Clear, cohesive and consistent headnoting in HKC provides you quick answers without having to pore through hundreds of pages of judgments, helping you stay ahead of the game.

"One of the most wonderful things about writing a book about criminal procedure is to see in detail and its broad scope what is, for the most part, a wonderful balance between the rights and interests of the parties to criminal proceedings in Hong Kong... Those who reform and meddle with this branch of law should always look both at the detail and the broad scope of law before proceeding with whatever well-intentioned change they propose, to make sure they understand the implications of which they wish to change."

"The Court looks at substance rather than form. If an employee was threatened that he would be dismissed unless he resigned, the Court may hold such 'resignation' to be constructive dismissal. However, if the 'resignation' was motivated by other facts, such as financial benefits or a reference letter, the termination might be a voluntary resignation notwithstanding that the employee was told either to resign or be dismissed."
