Civil procedure – leave to appeal to Court of Final Appeal – great general or public importance – application dismissed – indemnity costs – Leung Ho Sing & Others v Shung Yiu Tung cited. The Court of Appeal held that a complaint that the court correctly stated the law but misapplied it does not raise a question of great general or public importance. A rehash of previous arguments relying on assessment of evidence and discretion also does not meet the threshold. The application was dismissed with indemnity costs ordered forthwith.
Legal issues: Leave to appeal to Court of Final Appeal – great general or public importance
Outcome: Application for leave to appeal to the Court of Final Appeal dismissed.
