The applicant failed to show cause for long-term exemption because his occupational responsibilities and travel, while onerous, are neither unique nor extraordinary in Hong Kong and do not render him unable to perform jury duties; therefore the court refused the application for an eight-year exemption while noting the Registrar may consider case-by-case exemptions under s.28(2).
