The application to intervene was dismissed because the Proposed Intervener failed to demonstrate a legal interest in the land required under Order 15 r.6 (evidence showed only commercial/license-like interests), attempted conflation of Order 15 and Order 89 was improper because O.89 requires possession, and delay and conduct undermined the exercise of the court’s discretion; therefore leave to intervene was refused and the application dismissed with costs.

Procedural Posture

Intervention Application Under Order 15 R.6 ROC 2012 (with Ancillary Application Under Order 89 ROC 2012) / Judgment on Interlocutory Application to Intervene (high Court Decision Dated 23.12.2022)

Legal Issues

  1. 1 Whether the Proposed Intervener may be allowed to intervene under Order 15 r.6 ROC 2012

Ratio Decidendi

The application to intervene was dismissed because the Proposed Intervener failed to demonstrate a legal interest in the land required under Order 15 r.6 (evidence showed only commercial/license-like interests), attempted conflation of Order 15 and Order 89 was improper because O.89 requires possession, and delay and conduct undermined the exercise of the court’s discretion; therefore leave to intervene was refused and the application dismissed with costs.
