Citation

[2025] HKCFI 5889
Court

Court of First Instance
Case number

HCAL2239/2020

Leave to apply for judicial review was refused because the applicant's proposed grounds were vague, not particularised and not reasonably arguable; the Board applied the correct legal tests, observed a high standard of fairness, and its factual findings on credibility, risk from PPP and internal relocation were not vitiated by any public law error.

OKWUIGBO MADUEGBUNAM KENNEDY v. TORTURE CLAIMS APPEAL BOARD / NON-REFOULEMENT CLAIMS PETITION OFFICE [Decision on Leave Application]

Citation

[2025] HKCFI 4129
Court

Court of First Instance
Case number

HCAL279/2021

Leave was refused because the applicant failed to identify any arguable legal ground; the Board’s adverse factual findings on BOR Article 2 risk and the unreliability of evidence were not shown to involve error of law, procedural unfairness or irrationality, and therefore the intended challenge had no realistic prospects of success.
