[2]    The application is opposed by the respondents.  However, the respondents conceded that leave must be granted to the third applicant. [3]    The grounds of appeal are set out in the application for leave to appeal.  I do not intend to repeat same. [4] Section 17(1)(a) of the Superior Courts Act 10 of 2013 provide that leave to appeal may only be granted where the Judge or Judges concerned are of the opinion that the appeal would have a reasonable prospect of success; or if there is some compelling reason why the appeal should be heard including conflicting judgments on the matter under consideration. [5]    In respect of the application for leave to appeal against the whole of the judgment, the applicants raised as grounds a challenge to every finding made in the judgment. [6]    I have considered the evidence, the judgment of Justice Sardiwala, the grounds upon which this application for leave to appeal has been brought and the arguments advanced by the parties. [7]    I have also considered the reasons for the judgment and am of the view that there is a reasonable prospect that another Court would come to a different conclusion on the merits and law. [8]    Under the circumstances, it is ordered that: 8.1     Leave to appeal is granted in respect of all the applicants to a Full Court of the Gauteng Division Pretoria. 8.2     Costs will be costs in the appeal.
