Court of Appeal

CAMP69/2022

Extension of time was refused because the Board followed statutory procedure and law in refusing late filing, the applicant failed to provide evidence or an adequate explanation for the delay, there were no new facts to support the BOR 2 claim and the intended appeal had no real prospect of success; accordingly there was no basis to extend time to appeal the judge's refusal of leave.

RE GURPREET SINGH

Citation

[2021] HKCA 1262
Court

Court of Appeal
Case number

CAMP100/2021

Delay was minimal but immaterial: the decisive factor was lack of any reasonably arguable ground of appeal because the applicant failed to identify any legal error, irrationality or procedural unfairness in the Director's or Board's decisions; consequently the intended judicial review had no prospect of success and the extension of time to appeal was refused.
