Hon Rogers VP:
1. This is an application for leave to appeal to the Court of Final Appeal. It is an interlocutory matter.
2. The applicant must, of course, establish that the points to be decided are matters of great general or public importance. In my view, none have been advanced. The matter was a matter of practice and a matter of discretion. Try as Mr Remedios could, he could not find anything in the authorities to show that the Court's discretion could not be exercised in the way it was.
3. In those circumstances, this application should be dismissed.
Le Pichon JA:
4. I agree.
