JUDGMENT
(In the applications for Leave to Appeal and to Cross-Appeal )

This matter has been heard by way of a virtual hearing and disposed of in the terms of the Directives of the Judge President of this Division.  The judgment and order are accordingly published and distributed electronically.
DAVIS, J
[1]	In this matter the originally cited third respondent (Telegenix) sought leave to appeal and the original applicant (Zimele) subsequently applied for leave to cross-appeal the judgment of this court dated 14 April 2022.  The parties have convinced me that such leave should be granted and, after debate, I am of the view that leave to appeal and to cross-appeal should be granted to a full court of this division in terms of Section 17(6)(a) of the Superior Courts Act 10 of 2013.
[2]	SANRAL, who has otherwise abided the decision of this court, however opposed Zimele’s application to cross-appeal the costs order granted in respect of the subsequent abandoned Part A of the main application.  This was wherein Zimele initially sought an interdict in a somewhat belated urgent application.  SANRAL was joined in argument by Telegenix to the effect that the costs order was correctly granted, was as a result of the exercise of this court’s discretion and that such exercise was not properly or sufficiently attacked by Zimele in its notice of application for leave to cross-appeal.  I have listened to argument on this topic and agree with Telegenix and SANRAL that the threshold for leave to appeal an exercise of a discretion had not been met and that there are no other compelling reasons why such leave should be granted. 
[3]	Order in both 36023/2021 and 36024/2021:
1.	The applications for leave to appeal and to cross-appeal the judgment and orders of this court of 14 April 2022, save for paragraph 6.1 of those orders, are granted.
2.	Leave to appeal and to cross-appeal shall be to the full court of this division.
3.	Costs of the applications for leave to appeal and to cross-appeal shall be costs in the appeals.
