JUDGMENT

 

RANCHOD, J

 

[1]        In this application by the applicant for leave to appeal against the whole of the judgment and order I made, I considered the written application, the heads of argument and the oral submissions via video conference.

 

[2]        My judgment sets out the reasons for the dismissal of the review application. The grounds of appeal do not persuade me that another court will come to a different conclusion. I am accordingly of the view that there are no reasonable prospects of success on appeal.

 

[3]        I am also of the view that there are no other compelling reasons why the appeal should be heard.

 

[4]        I make the following order:

The application for leave to appeal is dismissed with costs including the costs of two counsel where so employed.
