Associated and consequential amendments are made by rules 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9 and 11.\nRule 10 amends rule 30.3 FPR to add a “Nominated Circuit Judge” as a further category of judge who may refuse permission to appeal without a hearing and, if the application is totally without merit, order that the applicant may not request that the decision be reconsidered at a hearing.",
