"An application for permission to appeal from a decision of... a county court which was itself made on appeal must be made to the Court of Appeal, and if permission to appeal is granted the appeal will be heard by the Court of Appeal."
"The Court of Appeal will not give permission unless it considers that
(a) the appeal would raise an important point of principle or practice, or
(b) there is some other compelling reason for the Court of Appeal to hear it."
