Holding

The applicant's application is dismissed but no costs are awarded.

Facts

Issues

  1. Whether the applicant's application for judicial review orders is defective due to the lack of identified and accurately stated grounds.
  2. Whether the applicant's application is misconceived and bad in law.

Reasoning

The court finds the applicant's application defective due to the lack of identified and accurately stated grounds, and it is therefore misconceived and bad in law.

Outcome

Application dismissed
