Section 4

Leave to appeal

(1)

Application under section 3(1) for leave to appeal to the Judicial Committee shall be made to the appellate court but where the application is made after 3 months from the date on which the decision appealed against was given leave shall not be granted unless the appellate court considers that in all the circumstances it is reasonable to do so.

(2)

Where the judgment appealed from requires the appellant to pay money or perform a duty, the court shall have power, when granting leave to appeal, either to direct that such judgment shall be carried into execution or that the execution thereof shall be suspended pending the appeal, as to the court shall seem just; and in case the court shall direct such judgment to be carried into execution, the person in whose favour it was given shall, before the execution thereof, enter into good and sufficient security to the satisfaction of the court, for the due performance of such order as the Judicial Committee may make in order to give effect thereto.
