Facts of the Case
Background
The applicants brought an application to dismiss the main matter HC 1627/20 for want of prosecution under Rule 236(4) after the respondents failed to set the matter down for hearing within one month of filing their answering affidavit. The respondents raised a preliminary objection that the application was prematurely filed as vacation periods and lockdown practice directions extended the reckoning period.
