RE ARISANTI

Court

Court of Appeal
Case number

CACV388/2024

The appeal is dismissed because the applicant failed to identify with sufficient particularity any legal error in the Judge's assessment of the Board's decision and did not demonstrate a realistic prospect of success for judicial review; procedural non-compliance reinforced the refusal to grant leave.

RE ABU SAMA SALIM

Citation

[2019] HKCA 694
Court

Court of Appeal
Case number

CACV93/2019

The appeal fails because the applicant provided no reasonably arguable grounds for judicial review; the Board's adverse credibility findings meant there was no need to consider state acquiescence; the Judge gave adequate reasons and there was no demonstrated error of law, procedural unfairness or irrationality warranting intervention, therefore the appeal is dismissed.
