    Court
    Court of First Instance
    Case number
    HCAL1578/2023

    Leave to apply for judicial review was refused and the applications dismissed because the applicants failed to identify any specific and arguable public law wrong, most lacked standing, the applications were subject to undue delay of many years without good reason, the Policy had been published and accessible, and the Director's challenged actions are land administrative decisions not amenable to judicial review; consequently the applications had no realistic prospect of success and costs were ordered against the applicants.

    張伯如 v. 地政總署署長

    Citation
    [2024] HKCFI 1143
    Court
    Court of First Instance
    Case number
    HCAL1869/2023

    Leave to apply for judicial review was refused because the applicants (save for Mr Cheung) lacked standing, the challenges were brought after inexcusable and substantial delay, the applicants failed to identify any specific and arguable public law wrong, and the Director's enforcement decisions concerning unauthorised occupation of Government land are land administration decisions not amenable to judicial review; cumulatively these defects meant no realistic prospect of success.
