Introduction
1 Simultaneously with these heads of argument is filed a Notice of Preliminary Objection in terms of rule 51 of the Supreme Court Rules, 2018. Through the notice is raised four objections to the appeal, one of which is directed at the court's jurisdiction. Judgment on that issue is called for first and ought with respect, to resolve the matter - Competition Commission of South Africa v Standard Bank of South Africa Ltd and related matters [2020] ZACC 2; 2020 (4) BCLR 429 at para 200.1 The appeal is at any rate defective in a fatal sense given the bad prayer and grounds preferred. On the substance, it is evident that the appeal is not a serious engagement with the judgment
and none of the jaw-dropping 14 grounds of appeal puts it at risk. Given this reality, the appeal may be dismissed with costs.
