Xuarez and Vitela

In the matter before Carew J, the applicant, Xuarez, sought various interlocutory orders, including dismissal of applications and leave to attend a final hearing by telephone. The respondent, Vitela, was the opposing party. The dispute concerned applications filed by Xuarez on 23 October 2017 and 16 November 2017.

The primary legal issues before the court were whether to dismiss the applicant's initial application, whether to grant the applicant leave to participate in the final hearing via telephone, and how to manage the remaining applications filed by the applicant. The court was required to determine the appropriate course of action for these interlocutory matters in anticipation of the final hearing.

Carew J dismissed the applicant's application filed on 23 October 2017. Furthermore, the application for leave to attend the final hearing by telephone, filed on 16 November 2017, was also dismissed. However, the court ordered that the two remaining applications filed by the applicant on 16 November 2017 be adjourned to the final hearing, which was scheduled to proceed at 10:00 am on 30 November 2017.
