TAMANG MINITA v. DIRECTOR OF IMMIGRATION
- Citation
- [2021] HKCA 1953
- Court
- Court of Appeal
- Case number
- CACV104/2021
The judge correctly refused leave because the Director lawfully exercised his wide discretion by taking the applicant's prior criminal conviction into account under established policy; there was no demonstrated illegality, Wednesbury unreasonableness or procedural impropriety and no failure to give adequate opportunity to present the case, so the court will not substitute its own view for the Director's discretion; the Court of Appeal dismissed the appeal for lack of viable public law grounds.
