HKSAR v. Liu Kim Po

Read the full judgment text of CACC 178/2001 on BabelCite. This Court of Appeal judgment was delivered on 11 January 2002.

1. No satisfactory reason has been given for the delay in applying for leave to appeal against the sentence imposed. It is also apparent from the papers that even if leave were to be granted to proceed out of time there would be no prospect of success on the application. This is because the sentence which was imposed for this serious offence was in no way excessive. The application is accordingly dismissed.
