KEWS v. NCHC

FAMV No. 10 of 2012

IN THE COURT OF FINAL APPEAL OF THE

HONG KONG SPECIAL ADMINISTRATIVE REGION

MISCELLANEOUS PROCEEDINGS NO. 10 OF 2012 (CIVIL)

(ON APPLICATION FOR LEAVE TO APPEAL FROM CACV 75 OF 2011)

Mr Justice Bokhary PJ :

1.  It is reasonably arguable that the Court of Appeal's judgment is based at least in part on the notion of "judicious encouragement".  And it is worthwhile to examine this notion in the Court of Final Appeal.  Leave to appeal is granted on the "great general or public importance" basis but only on that basis.  It is not granted on the "or otherwise" basis.
