Application for Leave to Apply for Judicial Review
NOTIFICATION of the Judge’s decision (Ord. 53 r. 3)
Following:
Order by The Honourable Mr Justice Coleman :
The Applicant does not cross the threshold for the grant of leave to apply for judicial review, either on the original Form 86 or on the proposed amendments (even if leave to amend were to be granted).
In conclusion, I refuse both the application to amend the Form 86 and, in any event, the application for leave to apply for judicial review.
However, in the broad exercise of my discretion relating to costs, I refuse Mr Chik’s application that the Applicant should pay costs. Rather, I make no order as to the costs of these proceedings.
Observations:
Refer to the Decision of the Honourable Mr Justice Coleman dated 23 February 2022.
Dated the 23rd day of February 2022.
