IN RE:
ACDC WINDING (PTY) LTD Applicant
and
THABAZIMBI AIR COMPRESSORS (PTY) LTD Respondent

JUDGMENT
HF JACOBS AJ:
[1] This is an application for leave to appeal in terms of section 17 of the
Superior Courts Act, 10 of 2013. | have listened carefully to the submissions made in
support of the application for leave to appeal and studied the heads of argument filed
on behalf of the applicant. The application levels criticism against the judgment but
does not, in my view, show any of the grounds listed by section 17(1) of the Act that
justify the granting of leave to appeal. On the contrary, in my view, the matter falls
under section 16(2)(a)(i) of 10 of 2013 in that the decision sought will have no practical
effect or result, even on appeal.
[2] | am therefore of the view that the appeal would not have reasonable
prospect of success and there is no other compelling reason why leave to appeal
should be granted.
[3] Under the circumstances leave to appeal is refused with costs.
