s 29 Appeals to court

29.—(1) Subject to this section, a decision of the Board is final. (2) In any case in which the award, as determined by the Board (excluding the amount of any costs awarded) exceeds $5,000, the appellant or the Collector may appeal to the Court of Appeal from the decision of the Board upon any question of law. (2A) Despite subsection (2), in a non‑lot acquisition relating to a strata title plan, only the management corporation constituted for the strata title plan is entitled to make an appeal to the Court of Appeal under subsection (2) in respect of that non‑lot acquisition, and there shall be no such appeal by —(a) any of the subsidiary proprietors constituting the management corporation for the strata title plan; and (b) any mortgagee, chargee or other person with an estate and interest in any lot comprised in the strata title plan.[26/2014] (3) The procedure governing such appeals to the Court of Appeal and costs relating to such appeals are the same as for appeals to the Court of Appeal from decisions of the General Division of the High Court.[40/2019] (4) The Court of Appeal is to hear and determine any such appeal and may confirm, reduce, increase or annul the award determined by the Board and make such further or other order on the appeal, whether as to costs or otherwise, as to the Court may seem fit. (5) There is no further right of appeal from decisions of the Court of Appeal under this section.
