Citation

[2026] HKCFI 2143
Court

Case number

HCAL2189/2023

The leave application was dismissed because the applicant's Form 86 failed to identify clear and reasonably arguable grounds, the supporting affirmation was vague, the Board's decision contained factual findings about credibility and availability of state protection which did not disclose any public law error, and therefore the intended challenge had no realistic prospects of success.
