香港特別行政區訴伍國璋
Court

Court of First Instance
Case number

HCMA146/2016

The application for a s32 certificate is refused because the complaints are challenges to the trial judge's factual and credibility findings rather than questions of law of wide general importance and no substantial or grave unfairness was demonstrated.

HKSAR v. NG KIM

Citation

HKSAR v. NG KIM
Court

Court of First Instance
Case number

HCMA329/2008

No point of law of great and general importance was identified; the contested issues involved application of established legal principles to the facts and therefore did not merit a s32 certificate; this court lacks power to decide the 'grave and substantial injustice' limb of s32(2), which is reserved to the Court of Final Appeal's appellate committee.
