ZEEGER & BLACK

In the matter of *Zeeger & Black*, heard before Thornton J, the court addressed applications made by the parties concerning unresolved issues in their dispute.

The central legal issue before the court was whether the extant applications should be struck out, and under what conditions they might be reinstated. The court was required to determine if the matter was ready for final hearing and if the issues remained genuinely unresolved and required judicial determination.

Thornton J reasoned that the applications should be struck out due to a lack of readiness for final hearing. However, the court provided a pathway for reinstatement, allowing parties to revive the applications by certifying to the Registrar that the issues remain unresolved, necessitate judicial intervention, and that the matter is otherwise prepared for a final hearing. The court also noted the parties' ongoing engagement in therapeutic assistance.

Accordingly, all extant applications were struck out, with the right for parties to seek reinstatement under the specified conditions.
