Jimenez v Watson

The application for leave to appeal concerned a dispute between Jimenez and Watson. The specific nature of the dispute is not detailed in the provided text, but the case involved an appeal concerning solicitors and advocate's immunity. The matter was heard by Macfarlan and White JJA.

The central legal issue before the court was whether there was an arguable case for leave to appeal. This question inherently involved the application of the principles governing advocate's immunity in the context of the solicitors' conduct.

The court determined that there was no arguable case for leave to appeal. This conclusion suggests that the court found the appeal to be without merit, likely based on established principles of advocate's immunity which shield legal practitioners from liability for actions taken in their role as advocates in court proceedings.

Consequently, the application for leave to appeal was dismissed with costs awarded to the respondent.
