    Court of First Instance
    Case number
    HCMP129/2007

    Leave to appeal was refused because the applicant's filings merely sought to re-open the substantive issues that produced the costs orders and did not demonstrate any error in the judge's exercise of discretion; an appeal would be futile; the court also exercised power under O.59 r.2A(8) to prohibit oral reconsideration.
