Hon Tang VP:

1.  On 13 March 2007, we dismissed the 2^nd respondent’s appeal from the order of Kwan J who ordered that the company be wound up.

2.  This is the 2^nd respondent’s application for leave to appeal to the Court of Final Appeal.

3.  I will not repeat the reasons given in the judgment of 13 March 2007.

4.  It is sufficient for the present purpose to say that no question of great general or public importance is involved in this appeal, and there is no other reason why leave to appeal to the Court of Final Appeal should be granted.

5.  The application is dismissed.

Hon Chu J:

6.  I agree.

Hon Lam J:

7.  I also agree.

8.  I would like to add that at the beginning of this hearing, Mr Sui sought the dismissal of this application with costs reserved so that he can apply to the Court of Final Appeal for leave to appeal.

9.  It is a matter for his client to consider whether they would like to apply to the Court of Final Appeal for leave to appeal but that should not prevent us from considering his application on the merit and we have considered this application on the merit.

10.  I agree for reasons delivered by Tang VP that this application should be dismissed.

Hon Tang VP:

11.  The application is dismissed with costs.
