RE MASRUROH IMAS AND ANOTHER

Citation

[2021] HKCA 562
Court

Court of Appeal
Case number

CAMP162/2020

Applicant's delay of about two years was excessive and inexcusable; having failed to advance any viable legal grounds and having no realistic prospect of success given the Board's findings (including viable internal relocation), the applicant could not satisfy the requirement to show a real prospect of success to justify extension of time, therefore extension was refused.
