CACV 218/2017 [2018] HKCA 104 IN THE HIGH COURT OF THE HONG KONG SPECIAL ADMINISTRATIVE REGION COURT OF APPEAL CIVIL APPEAL NO 218 OF 2017 (ON APPEAL FROM HCAL NO 327 OF 2017) __________________________
__________________________
________________ JUDGMENT ________________ Hon Lam VP (giving the Judgment of the Court): 1.We (Cheung CJHC and Lam VP) handed down our judgment dismissing the appeal on 12 January 2018. 2.On 12 January 2018, the applicant issued a Notice of Motion seeking leave to appeal to the Court of Final Appeal. 3.Pursuant to Practice Direction 2.1, the applicant should lodge submissions in support of his application within 14 days after the filing of the Notice of Motion. 4.The applicant did not lodge any submissions despite reminder by the Registrar for Civil Appeals to do so. 5.We therefore process the application as it is. The Notice of Motion only sets out the applicant’s request for leave, repeating that he could not go back to his country due to danger for his own life. 6.Having read the documents, we cannot find any basis for holding that leave to appeal should be granted pursuant to Section 22(1)(b) of the Hong Kong Court of Final Appeal Ordinance. There is no question of great general or public importance in the intended appeal. There is no reason for leave to be granted on the “or otherwise” limb. 7.The Notice of Motion of 12 January 2018 is dismissed.
