HCAL 121/2013 IN THE HIGH COURT OF THE HONG KONG SPECIAL ADMINISTRATIVE REGION COURT OF FIRST INSTANCE CONSTITUTIONAL AND ADMINISTRATIVE LAW LIST NO. 121 OF 2013 ____________
____________ Before: Hon Suffiad J in Court Date of Hearing: 18 July 2014 Date of Decision: 18 July 2014 Date of Reasons for Decision: 13 August 2014 _______________________________________ REASONS FOR DECISION _______________________________________ 1.This is an application by the Applicant for leave to apply for Judicial Review against the decision of the Torture Claim Appeal Board which was against the Applicant. 2.The Applicant is a torture claimant. 3.An oral hearing for leave was set down for 18th July 2014 by reason of the fact that on the papers before me, there was not sufficient material for such leave to be granted. 4.The Applicant failed to appear in court on the day set for the oral hearing for leave. 5.There is nothing on the papers before me to suggest that the decision of Adjudicator the Appeal Board was unreasonable in the Wednesbury sense, nor are there any grounds to suggest that that decision should be quashed on any public law basis. 6.There is also nothing on the papers before me to suggest that the Adjudicator had erred on law. 7.It would appear that on the papers before me, the Applicant (acting in person) was simply asking this court to carry out a total review of the matter. That is not the task of the court in an application for leave for judicial review. 8.The Applicant not having attended the oral hearing to show why leave ought to be granted in this case, the application for leave was accordingly dismissed.
The applicant was not represented and did not appear |
