FIRST RAND BANK LIMITED

JUDGMENT
A.M.L. PHATUDI J:
[1] This is a rescission application. There is no appearance by the applicant or counsel for the applicant. The name of the applicant was called out 3 times outside court. There are no heads of argument filed.
[2] After having read the application and considered arguments made by the respondent, I am of the view that there is no merit in the application. There are no prospects of success even on the merits of the main action. The application therefore stands to be dismissed.
[3] It is trite law that costs follow the event. The respondent succeeds with their defence and is therefore entitled to their costs.
The following order is thus made.
Order:
The applicant’s application is dismissed with costs.
