Family law [2026] HKCA 993

譚 對 吳

The court refused leave to appeal because the father's grounds failed to show any obvious error of fact or principle in the trial judge's exercise of discretion: the 12‑month supervision order was a lawful, reasonable measure within the judge's assessment of the parties' communication and the child's welfare; social welfare reports are advisory; the custody award to the mother did not evidence a reversible error; and the application therefore lacked a reasonable prospect of success. Costs were awarded against the applicant.
