Holding

The application is disallowed as the High Court has already dealt with the matter and the applicant's appeal to the Court of Appeal is not determined.

Facts

  1. Whether the applicant's sentence should be reviewed due to medical grounds and remission of time in remand
  2. Whether the applicant's appeal to the High Court was exhausted
