Page:Gory v Kolver (CC).djvu/7

 The Starke sisters argue that, should the High Court order be confirmed, they will suffer prejudice by being deprived of their vested rights as their late brother’s intestate heirs. While they make no specific submissions in respect of paragraph 1 of the High Court order, they contend that paragraphs 2 and 3 of the order should not be confirmed, that reading-in is not the appropriate remedy and that any order made by this Court should apply only to the intestate estates of persons who die after the order is handed down. The Starke sisters do not seek costs from any party in this matter.

While Mr Bell does not oppose the Starke sisters’ application for intervention, he opposes the relief sought by them. He also applies to intervene should their application be granted. Like the Starke sisters, Mr Bell does not seek costs. Neither Mr Kolver nor the Minister opposes the application for intervention by the Starke sisters, or the conditional application to intervene by Mr Bell. Mr Gory, on the other hand, takes the view that there is no merit in the Starke sisters’ application and that it should be dismissed with costs.
