The CFA further endorsed the CA\u2019s reasons for refusing leave and confirmed that none of the defendants\u2019 points are reasonably arguable.<\/p>\n<p id=\"ember1208\" class=\"ember-view reader-text-block__paragraph\"><strong>Conclusion<\/strong><\/p>\n<p id=\"ember1209\" class=\"ember-view reader-text-block__paragraph\">The preliminary issues saga has now reached a final and decisive end. The outcome underscores the Hong Kong courts\u2019 robust approach against backdated or sham transactions and the exceptionally high threshold for disturbing findings of fact at the highest appellate
