Ng Chiu Yuen Jacob v. Lam Che Cheung
Court

Appeal dismissed because the complaints were disputes of fact and no point of law was raised; under s.68A the Court has jurisdiction only to hear appeals raising errors of law and therefore cannot interfere.

Citation

TANG HO HANG v. DIRECTOR OF LANDS
Court

Court of Appeal
Case number

CACV39/1996

The Notices of Appeal did not disclose any point of law as required by s.11(2) Lands Tribunal Ordinance and O.60A r.2; the appellants' complaints concerned factual questions of quantum/valuation comparables only; accordingly there was no competent appeal to this Court and, exercising its inherent jurisdiction, the Court must strike out the Notices of Appeal in both matters.
