- Court of Appeal
The Court of Appeal held causes of action 1, 2 and 3(1) merely re-litigated issues finally determined by the High Court and therefore constituted an impermissible collateral attack/abuse of process and were correctly struck out; cause of action 3(2) was deficient in pleading but raised matters beyond the prior appeal and was allowed to be re-pleaded within one month; the High Court costs judgment was correctly made and was upheld.
