Facts

Issues
- Whether the application for revision of sentence is merited
- Whether the applicant is a poor person warranting leave to appeal
Reasoning
The intended appeal was dismissed by this court in HCRA 62/2019. There is no draft Petition of Appeal showing the points of law the applicant intends to raise. Being in prison is not evidence of pauperisms to warrant leave to appeal as a poor person.
