Holding

The court dismisses the Ex-parte Applicant's Motion and orders each party to bear their own costs.

Facts

The Ex-parte Applicant seeks judicial review of an order under Fisheries General Regulations, Legal Notice Number 34 of 1991, which reserved the suit property for public purpose. The Applicant claims the property is his own.

  2. Whether the grant of such orders will confirm the validity of the Applicant's title and subvert public interests.
