Hong Kong court dismisses US$1.53 million claim against actress Cecilia Cheung by former agent

A Hong Kong court has thrown out a substantial claim of US$1.53 million against renowned actress Cecilia Cheung. Her former agent had accused the star of reneging on film appearances, alleging a breach of contract that cost the agent significant financial losses.

However, the judge presiding over the case found the evidence presented insufficient to support the agent's claims. Crucially, the court determined that the contract itself was likely fabricated. This ruling effectively nullifies the agent's lawsuit and dismisses the substantial financial demand against Cheung.

The case centered on allegations that Cheung had failed to fulfill her contractual obligations for film roles. The agent sought to recover the alleged losses incurred due to her purported non-compliance. The court's decision, based on the questionable authenticity of the contract, brings a definitive end to this legal dispute.
