The court refused both applications for extension of time because the excessive length of delay, the public policy of finality, and the real prejudice and detriment to good administration (including loss of evidence and witnesses and floodgate risk) outweigh the applicants' merits based on the Lam Siu Po decision; a change in the understanding of the law alone did not constitute a good reason to grant the extensions in these circumstances.
