UHEMA SAFII
The application is struck out because the applicant's prayer for extension of time to serve notice of intention to appeal is procedurally defective and misplaced, as no notice of appeal has been lodged and such relief falls within the jurisdiction of the Court of Appeal. Further, the application is incompetent as the prior appeal was withdrawn without leave to refile, and the applicant failed to show sufficient cause for extension of time.
