Procedural directions: The court directed the filing of a counter affidavit within 6 weeks, with a rejoinder affidavit to be filed within 6 weeks after the counter affidavit is served. The case was listed for the next hearing on 7th March, 2012, with copies of the order to be provided to both parties.
