    Citation
    THE QUEEN v. WONG TAK SING
    Court
    Court of Appeal
    Case number
    CACC513/1988

    The Court had no jurisdiction to relist and rehear sentence because no statute confers such power, the appellant was present when sentence was pronounced so the decision was final, and English precedents permit reconsideration only where there has been procedural error or the decision was not properly determined, neither of which applied; accordingly the application to relist was refused.
