sijaona so kayanda traiphon vs republic 2020 tzca 180 31 march 2020

The application is misconceived because the applicant's previous appeal was withdrawn and deemed dismissed, and Rule 10 does not provide an avenue for resurrecting such an appeal. Failure by the Registrar to supply the record of appeal does not constitute good cause for extension of time to lodge another notice of appeal.

  • Extension of time
  • Appeal withdrawal
  • Record of appeal
  • Good cause for delay
