A decision by a judge under r 28A.04(5) of the Supreme Court (General Civil Procedure) Rules 2015 refusing to direct the Prothonotary to accept documents for filing is not appealable to the Court of Appeal because it is an exercise of administrative, not judicial, power and does not constitute a 'determination of the Trial Division' within s 17(2) of the Supreme Court Act 1986. 'Totally without merit' under s 14D(3) means the application clearly has no prospect of success, and this assessment may extend to the applicant's jurisdictional contentions.
