Supreme Court cannot hear appeals from Small Claims Court cases because the law says High Court decisions are final. The court held that Article 163(3)(b)(ii) requires national legislation to prescribe its appellate jurisdiction — and the Small Claims Court Act does not.
Application for certification of appeal to the Supreme Court dismissed — leave refused on general public importance; no point of law of general public importance disclosed.
Courts cannot revisit past sentences, but must credit time already served in remand. The court confirmed it is functus officio after final sentence, while time in custody must count towards the term.
Application for leave to appeal out of time dismissed — no exceptional circumstances shown to justify the delay.
Petition struck out — certification of general public importance not established; the Court's jurisdiction was not properly engaged.
