The abandonment could not be treated as a nullity because the applicant's own affirmation showed the decision to abandon was deliberate and informed (lack of funds and lack of legal knowledge do not establish involuntariness or wrong legal advice), and the proposed grounds lacked merit; therefore leave to treat abandonment as nullity is refused.
