Facts of the Case

Background

This matter was remitted by the Supreme Court for a hearing de novo. The applicant failed to attend the hearing on 9 January 2024, resulting in an order being granted in favour of the first respondent. The applicant subsequently filed multiple applications including for rescission of judgment (dismissed), leave to appeal (deemed abandoned), reinstatement (dismissed), and another leave to appeal application (struck off). The applicant then filed the present 'Conjoined Application' seeking condonation and leave to appeal against the dismissal of the reinstatement application.
