        (a)     within 2 months after filing the Notice of Application, you must file with the Registrar and serve on the respondent a full statement of the grounds upon which you intend to rely on appeal, if leave to appeal is given. This need not follow the grounds stated in your Notice of Application, but in the new document the grounds must be stated fully, precisely and in detail; and

        (b)     within one month after filing the full statement of grounds, you must file with the Registrar and serve on the respondent an outline of the submissions to be relied upon on the hearing of your application.

Failure to comply with either of these requirements may result in your application standing dismissed. Any extension of time (if needed) should be sought from the Registrar before time expires. After time expires, an extension can be granted only by the Court itself.

    2A.     If you wish the Court, on the hearing of your application, to consider your case in writing without the presentation of oral argument, you should inform the Registrar accordingly.";
