Barbara Alison Al-Sabah and Another v Grupo Torras S A and Others: PC 10 Oct 2000

PC (Jersey) The board refused special leave to appeal: ‘Normally all such questions of case management are matters for the courts concerned and are not suitable for any further review before their Lordships’ Board. The directions and orders which may be made cover a spectrum of possibilities and have to take into account all the prevailing local circumstances. In the absence of some error of principle or other special factor, leave should not ordinarily be granted for any further appeal. Such interlocutory appeals inevitably delay the action. This is the position in the present case. Their Lordships have advised that special leave be refused ‘
