Stuart-Moore, VP (giving the judgment of the Court):
1. There has been a history of delay since 7 May 2005 when legal aid was refused and today, the applicant having maintained his application for an adjournment, we have refused to adjourn the hearing. In the result, the applicant has indicated that he wished to abandon his application for leave to appeal against conviction. We have had a considerable time in which to assess the merits of the applicant’s homemade grounds of appeal and also the grounds settled by his trial counsel which the applicant handed to us during these proceedings. There is, in our opinion, no merit whatsoever in any of the grounds. As this application has not been pursued by the applicant, it is dismissed.
