- Court
- Court of Final Appeal
- Case number
- FAMV26/2005
Section 24 requires filing a notice of motion for leave within 28 days of the judgment to be appealed from and, where leave is refused by the Court of Appeal, a further 28-day limit applies; the additional period is not an alternative to the original filing requirement. Although the court may extend time, extension was refused here because the proposed appeal had no reasonable prospects of reversing the concurrent findings of fact that there was no gift to the deceased, so extension and leave were refused.
