SCHEDULE OF REASONS
1.The Appellant’s application for permission to appeal was filed on 17 February 2019 and falls outside of the 21-day period set out in the Rules of the DIFC Courts (the “RDC”). I therefore find that the Application is out of time, pursuant to RDC 44.10.
2. The Appellant’s application for permission to appeal also did not comply with RDC 44.13, insofar as it did not include an application for an extension of time and a statement of the reason for the delay and the steps taken prior to the application being made.
3. For the above reasons, I am of the view that Application for permission to appeal is to be refused by the Courts.
