I have considered Notice of Motion dated 18th January 2026, the supporting affidavit and the submissions.
I am persuaded that prayer number 2 is merited. Regarding prayer number 5, I am not persuaded to grant it at this point. That would be to interfere with the discretion of the taxing officer. Counsel should seek any orders for extension of time from the taxing officer.
In the end, I allow Notice of Motion dated 18th January 2026 in terms of prayer number 2 (two) thereof. No order on costs.
Dated this 10th day of March 2026.
