Holding

The motion is struck out as fatally defective, incompetent, and a nullity. The applicant's motion is expunged from the court record.

Facts

Issues

  1. Whether the applicant met the threshold to warrant issuance of the orders sought
  2. Whether the applicant disclosed the decision he was aggrieved against and the date of its delivery
