Leave to appeal to the Court of Final Appeal was refused because the applicant failed to identify any question of great general or public importance as required by section 22(1)(b) Cap.484 and no alternative "or otherwise" justification was shown; statutory requirements for leave were therefore not met.

The application for leave to appeal was dismissed because the statutory threshold in section 22(1)(b) was not met: the applicant’s complaints were personal and not of general or public importance and many complaints could not be raised because they had not been argued in the court below; there was no basis under the ‘otherwise’ limb to grant leave.
