Holding

The Ex-parte Applicant's application for Certiorari and Prohibition is dismissed.

Facts

The Ex-parte Applicant seeks to quash the Rent Restriction Tribunal's order requiring the 1st Interested Party to provide CR12s for purposes of issuing warrants of arrest against the Ex-parte Applicant's directors.

Issues

  1. Whether the Ex-parte Applicant has established grounds for grant of orders of Certiorari and Prohibition to quash the 1st Respondent's order.
  2. Whether the 1st Respondent's orders are illegal, irrational, and a departure from the rules of natural justice.

Reasoning

The Court found the 1st Respondent's orders to be interlocutory and not final determinations of rights. The Ex-parte Applicant did not establish grounds for quashing the orders.

Outcome

The Ex-parte Applicant's application is dismissed.
