REASONS FOR DECISION
--------------------------------------
Hon Cheung JA (giving decision of the Court) :
1. The plaintiff applied for leave to appeal to the Court of Final Appeal against our decision of 15 April 2008 in which we refused to grant leave to the plaintiff to appeal against the decision of H H Judge Leung of the District Court.
2. The law is clear that where the Court of Appeal refuses to grant leave to appeal, the decision does not constitute a judgment for the purpose of an appeal to the Court of Final Appeal (see HLF v. MTC and LHN [2004] 3 HKLRD 241).
3. Because the plaintiff has no further right to appeal against our decision of 15 April 2008, we accordingly refused to grant leave to the plaintiff. We made no order as to costs.
