JUDGMENT:
Application for leave to appeal
AC
BASSON,J
[1]
The applicant brought an application for leave to appeal to the
Supreme Court of Appeal against the judgment and order granted
by
this court on 12 December 2016.
[2]
I have considered the grounds for leave to appeal and I am persuaded
that an appeal would have reasonable prospects of success.
I am
likewise of the view that leave should be granted to the Supreme
Court of Appeal in light of the questions of law pertinently
raised
in the judgment.
[3]
The respondents attempted to move a counter-application for leave to
appeal from the bar in respect of a costs order granted
in paragraph
[55] of the judgment. In light of the fact that there is no proper
counter-application I have declined to consider
such an application.
[4]
In the event the following order is made:
1.
Leave to appeal to the Supreme Court of Appeal is granted.
2.
Costs to be costs in the appeal.
