CACC000519/2001 CACC 519/2001 IN THE HIGH COURT OF THE HONG KONG SPECIAL ADMINISTRATIVE REGION COURT OF APPEAL CRIMINAL APPEAL NO. 519 OF 2001 (ON APPEAL FROM DCCC 762 OF 2001) ______________
______________ Coram: Hon Mayo VP in Court Date of Hearing: 21 March 2002 Date of Judgment: 21 March 2002 _____________ J U D G M E N T _____________ 1.The applicant has not raised any substantial grounds of appeal against his conviction. The case against him was a very strong one. Leave to appeal is refused. 2.Similarly no substantial ground has been raised in respect of the sentence of 21/2 years' imprisonment which has been imposed. This application is also refused. 3.I would add that all that the applicant is doing at the moment is seeking leave to appeal. It is open to the applicant to proceed notwithstanding the fact that leave has not been granted. But if he does so and the Court of Appeal forms the view that there is no merit in both of the applications, it may order that part of the time which he served will not count towards the sentence he is serving. He should know about that before he proceeds.
