MUHAMMAD JAMIL v. TORTURE CLAIMS APPEAL BOARD / NON-REFOULEMENT CLAIMS PETITION OFFICE

Citation

[2023] HKCA 273
Court

Court of Appeal
Case number

CACV354/2022

The applicant failed to identify any error in the Court of Appeal's decision and failed to demonstrate that the appeal raised a question of great general or public importance under section 22(1)(b) Cap 484; his unparticularised assertions did not meet the statutory threshold for leave, therefore the motion for leave was dismissed.

R v. DIRECTOR OF IMMIGRATION AND ANOTHER

Citation

[2020] HKCFI 1308
Court

Court of First Instance
Case number

HCAL152/2017

The applicant's systemic challenge to an Alleged Pre-Screening Policy is not reasonably arguable on the evidence; the only lawful policy is the statutory/administrative requirement of a written signification under s37X and the USM Notice; isolated incorrect decisions do not prove systemic defect; the applicant lacks sufficient interest because the Director has belatedly recognised the applicant's claim and offered compensation making the policy challenge academic; leave to apply for judicial review in respect of Decision (1) is dismissed.
