The application for out-of-time permission to appeal was dismissed because the defendant's six-month delay was excessive and unjustified, he failed to provide acceptable reasons, the proposed grounds derived from the intervener lacked realistic prospects of success, granting leave would prejudice the plaintiff (possession already executed), and a non-lawyer intervener cannot act as the defendant's advocate; costs of the application were awarded to the plaintiff in the sum of HKD 18,385.
