High Court refuses an application for leave to apply for judicial review concerning the acquisition of a fee simple interest under ground rents legislation, on the grounds that: the application was significantly out of time, as it should have been commenced within three months of the initial arbitration award; and the applicant's substantive claims were based on a misapprehension of the statutory scheme, casting doubt on whether the claims could meet the threshold for a grant of leave.
