background
Facts of the Case
Background
The applicant sought condonation for late filing of an appeal against an arbitral award. The court found the delay was caused by the applicant's legal practitioners' negligence in citing parties incorrectly, and that the proposed appeal raised factual issues rather than points of law, giving it no prospects of success.
