Leave to appeal was granted only on the narrow issue whether Order 11 must be invoked for service of the originating summons where the alleged contemnor has already submitted to the court's jurisdiction (grounds 2 and 3 of the Jurisdiction Challenge); all other grounds were dismissed as re‑argument without merit; the application for a stay of the contempt proceedings was refused because it would cause prejudice and delay to SAIFs and impede the swift resolution of contempt and account proceedings; costs were apportioned as ordered.
