Summary

A father (TKW) sought leave to appeal against the dismissal of his application to make his two children wards of court and order their return to Hong Kong from abroad. The Court of Appeal refused leave, finding the father's originating summons was properly struck out as the appropriate forum was the Family Court, and his application was an abuse of process designed to circumvent existing custody proceedings.
