The application was dismissed because the original counsel lacked a valid practising certificate under the LPA, and representation by an unlicensed advocate cannot lawfully be cured by appearance of a licensed proxy; this unauthorized representation rendered the proceedings irregular and dismissal was justified, with the further procedural bar that a pending related appeal must be resolved by the High Court before reconsideration.
