Conditions precedent to adduce additional evidence before the Supreme Court
Brief facts
The plaintiff had filed an application for waiver of fees that had been dismissed by the Registrar of the Supreme Court. Aggrieved the plaintiff filed for review before a single judge of the Supreme Court that was aggrieved. Further aggrieved, the plaintiff filed the instant application.
Issues
Whether the Supreme Court had the jurisdiction to review a decision by a single judge of the Supreme Court in a review of a decision by the Registrar of the Supreme Court to deny waiver of fees.
Held
- Rule 63 (2) of the Supreme Court Rules, 2020 conferred powers on the Registrar to entertain an application for request for waiver of fees. Any party aggrieved by the decision of the Registrar was permitted to apply for review to a single judge whose decision shall be final by dint of rule 6(2) and (3) of the Supreme Court Rules, 2020. The applicant had failed to invoke that procedure and instead filed a motion directly to the court seeking waiver of court fees to prosecute his application. While aware that the applicant was acting in person and may not be aware of the correct procedure, the Supreme Court was constrained not to grant his application.
- The instant application sought to review the decision of a single judge emanating from a decision of the Registrar. The Deputy Registrar of the Supreme Court had dismissed the applicants plea to lodge his pleadings and a single judge of the Supreme Court had on February 17, 2023 declined to review that decision. That decision was final. Granting the instant application would be an action in vain. The Supreme Court had no jurisdiction to revisit that decision. The application lacked merit.

Supreme Court does not have jurisdiction to hear and determine and appeal in which no substantial questions of law had been raised.
Brief facts
The appellant had sought for its appeal to be certified as one that raised issues of general public importance that warranted an appeal to the Supreme Court. Aggrieved the appellant filed an application at the Supreme Court to set aside the decision of the Court of Appeal. The matter of general importance that the appellant sought to be determined was whether a guarantor was discharged upon payment of the principal amount and was therefore not liable for interest, costs and other charges.
The respondent opposed the application on grounds that no matters of general public importance affecting the banking industry had been raised.
Issues
Whether the Supreme Court had jurisdiction to hear and determine and appeal in which no substantial questions of law had been raised.
Held
- The Court of Appeal found that the certification application could not be sustained. The court based its decision on unconscionable contract as opposed to interpretation of the guarantee document; and that the issue of continuing guarantee clauses was neither pleaded nor determined.
- The notice of motion lacked merit as the applicants had not highlighted any issues, the determination of which, would transcend the circumstances of the matter at hand so as to justify a review of the Court of Appeals ruling. The applicants had not raised any substantial question of law, the determination of which, would have a significant bearing on the public interest.
