Article 4 Disposal of groundless appeal or application for leave to appeal

If it appears to the registrar that a notice of application for leave to appeal to the Court of Appeal under Part 2 of the Act does not show any substantial ground of appeal, he may refer the application for leave to the Court of Appeal for summary determination; and where the case is so referred the Court of Appeal may, if they consider that the application for leave is frivolous or vexatious, and can be determined without adjourning it for a full hearing, dismiss the application for leave summarily, without calling on anyone to attend the hearing.
