Thank you, Madam Chair. I have to ask the committee if we can go back to 14.1(1) on the clause. I know we went over it.

It says that if a judge of the Supreme Court is satisfied, on application, that a person has, in any court, persistently and without reasonable grounds commenced...Is JP Court part of that definition? Thank you.

JP court is under the Territorial Court Act, but there would be no practical application for this to apply in JP Court.

Thank you, Madam Chair. This is to follow up on what Mr. Yakeleya was saying. I just want to ask the Minister, just for more clarification, what do you mean by there is no practical application in JP Court with this? What exactly does that mean?

Thank you, Madam Chair. The reason that we say it would have no practical application is because the types of actions that this is aimed at are, generally speaking, private lawsuits between two parties. Those types of lawsuits are not brought in JP Court; they are brought in Territorial Court, the Supreme Court, and the Court of Appeal.
