Dear Mr M**dley

We note that you have changed the case details of the matter on Caselines, uploaded documents and invited parties to the matter in spite of the letter issued by the * Deputy Judge President which is attached hereto for your ease of reference.

As you are aware, we are awaiting the allocation of a court date on the interlocutory roll to hear the opposed rule 30 application. We will advise as soon as a date has been allocated. Please do not frustrate the process by making alterations to Caselines.

Regards,

Victoria Geiger For reference: DJP Ronald Sutherland
