- Court
- High Court
Epic Trust was not permitted to be heard on 15 November 2023 because it had not complied with required procedural steps (no timely joinder or notice of opposition), its conduct had been disruptive and prejudicial, and there was insufficient evidence of any legitimate interest or valid assignments; the appropriate course is to require formal applications (joinder and/or examination under s 266) and to hear those applications on an ordered timetable with a hearing set for the week of 11 December 2023.
