v.
COSTI HAJI PIERI AND OTHERS.
PRIVY COUNCIL APPEAL-PAUPER RULES, 1908-COURTS OF JUSTICE-ORDER IN COUNCIL, 1882, CLAUSE 41, SEC. 27.
Application by plaintiff (appellant) for leave to appeal to His Majesty in Council from an Order of the supreme Court of Cyprus dated 7th May, 1926, dismissing an appeal from the District Court of Larnaca, and, if leave is so granted, application further for leave to be allowed to prosecute the appeal before the Privy Council under the Rules of Court (Pauper) of 1908.
HELD: Local Rules of Court are not applicable to appeals before the Privy Council.
For Applicant Fadil.
For some of the Respondents (Defendants) N. Chrysafinis.
Other Respondents absent.
Judgment: Leave to appeal to the Privy Council granted subject to applicant entering into good and sufficient security in the sum of £500 within three months from to-day.
Application for leave to appeal under the Pauper Rules refused. Pauper Rules do not apply to appeals before the Privy Council. The applicant may apply to His Majesty the King in Council for leave to appeal under clause 41, (27) of the Courts of Justice Order, 1882, which expressly preserves the prerogative right to grant special leave to appeal.
