for an order for special leave to appeal, their lordships held that, “The
jurisdiction of this court under Rule 28 of the Supreme Court Rules to
entertain an application for special leave to appeal is exercisable, as stated
in Rule 9, where an appeal lies under any law with special leave either of the
High Courts or of this court. Under section 8 of the Courts Act, 1960, which
applies to this application, special leave is required only of the High Court
and not either of the High Court or of this court. In the circumstances this
court is incompetent to grant special leave to appeal. The application is accordingly
dismissed with costs.”</span><span style="font-size: 13.5pt; line-height: 115%; font-family: Helvetica, sans-serif;"><o:p></o:p></span></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 5pt; text-align: justify; line-height: 115%; background-image: initial; background-position: initial; background-size: initial; background-repeat: initial; background-attachment: initial; background-origin: initial; background-clip: initial;"><span style="font-size: 12pt; line-height: 115%; font-family: &quot;Book Antiqua&quot;, serif;">&nbsp;</span><span style="font-size: 13.5pt; line-height: 115%; font-family: Helvetica, sans-serif;"><o:p></o:p></span></p><p class="MsoNormal" align="center" style="margin-bottom:5.0pt;text-align:center;
