    Citation
    [2023] HKFC 7
    Court
    Family Court
    Case number
    FCMC5771/2018

    The application for leave to appeal was dismissed because the father failed to show any arguable case with reasonable prospects of success on the grounds advanced; the judge's case management discretion in refusing to appoint the Family Separation Clinic and in directing a government clinical psychologist was exercised lawfully on the facts and did not amount to procedural unfairness or pre-determination; consequently the stay application was also dismissed.
