In the Notice of Motion, the following is stated:
3.The Applicant has not filed any written submissions in support of the Notice of Motion notwithstanding the direction of the Registrar of Civil Appeals dated 21 December 2021. 4.Under s 22(1)(b) of the Hong Kong Court of Final Appeal Ordinance, Cap 484, an appeal shall lie to the Court of Final Appeal at the discretion of, inter alia, the Court of Appeal in any civil cause or matter if, in the opinion of the Court of Appeal the question involved in the appeal is one which, by reason of its great general or public importance, or otherwise, ought to be submitted to the Court of Final Appeal for decision. 5.No question of great general or public importance involved in the proposed appeal is identified in the Notice of Motion. We are unable to see any such question being involved in the proposed appeal. There is also no basis to grant leave to appeal on the “otherwise” limb in s 22(1)(b) of the Hong Kong Court of Final Appeal Ordinance. 6.Accordingly, the application for leave to appeal is refused and the Notice of Motion is dismissed.
