Clause 17.
C.
Substitute "Judge" for "Court" in lines 1 and 4.
marks in margin of the
Chief Justice.
Add at the end of the clause the following:-
"Such application shall be made in
Chambers to a single Judge of the
Supreme Court unless the Judge directs
it to be heard in Court on a report
from the Registrar that all the
conditions have been complied with,
and the costs of the attendance on
such application of any party other
than the appellant or his solicitor
shall not be allowed unless the Judge
certify there was reasonable ground
for such attendance."
far as my experience
1008
I cannot see the
e of two applications
o the Court, because this
means two briefs to counsel, and only adds to the costs. The Rules how-
ever contemplate conditional and final leave to
appeal. I therefore put this forward only as a suggestion for consideration.
The amendment is inserted to meet the wishes
of the Chief Justice in paragraph 3 of his
letter of the 3rd instant. The application
in Chambers would naturally lie to one
Judge. The rule as amended will not, I think,
conflict with the definition of "Court" in
clause 1.
