This article explores the application of Sections 43 and 44 of the Courts of Judicature Act (CJA) 1964, focusing on the Court of Appeal’s decision in 𝘚𝘪𝘭𝘷𝘦𝘳 𝘊𝘰𝘯𝘤𝘦𝘱𝘵 𝘚𝘥𝘯 𝘉𝘩𝘥 𝘷 𝘉𝘳𝘪𝘴𝘥𝘢𝘭𝘦 𝘙𝘢𝘴𝘢 𝘋𝘦𝘷𝘦𝘭𝘰𝘱𝘮𝘦𝘯𝘵 𝘚𝘥𝘯 𝘉𝘩𝘥.  Sections 43 and 44 of CJA regulate how and where parties may apply for interim relief during appellate proceedings, but varying interpretations have sparked a debate over whether the Court of Appeal has original jurisdiction in such matters. Given the varying interpretations, there is a need for the Court of Appeal to re-examine the previous cases, and provide clarity on these provisions.
