Flynote: Application for leave to appeal against refusal by trial court to reserve
questions of law in terms of s 319 of the Criminal Procedure Act 51 of 1977 – factual
bases for the reservations not set out, did not appear fully from the judgment and no
request was made to trial court for special finding on the facts upon which points of
law hinged – questions of fact and not law sought to be reserved – application for leave
to appeal dismissed.
