By means of a decree delivered by the Court of Appeal, Inferior Jurisdiction, on 12th August, 2025, in the records of Application number 62/2025 in the names Pretty Rose Apiag (ID 272232A) vs Absolute Services Limited (C68516), the following publication was ordered for the purpose of effecting service on Absolute Services Limited in terms of Article 187(3) et sequitur of Cap. 12.

Whereas in Appeal Application number 62/2025, filed on 13th June, 2025, the appellant Pretty Rose Apiag felt aggrieved by the decision of the Industrial Tribunal pronounced on the 4th June, 2025, in that the said Tribunal was unfair and inhumane in relation to her case while she always explained that her intention was to work legally in Malta. Whereas her grievances consist in the following grounds:

 1. There has been a violation of the law in relation to work permits for TCNs; 

2. Her dismissal was discriminatory; 

3. There has been a breach of the principles of reasonableness, proportionality and the human element as well as of fair administration.

Therefore, the applicant respectfully requests that this Honourable Court upholds the grounds of appeal and revokes the decision of the Industrial Tribunal pronounced on the 4th June, 2025, and that she be given adequate compensation as shall be decided by this Honourable Court, with all costs against the respondent company.

Application number 62/2025 in the names Pretty Rose Apiag vs Absolute Services Limited has been deferred to the 11th February, 2026, to be called at 9.50 a.m.

For the Registrar, Civil Courts and Tribunals

By means of a decree delivered by the Constitutional Court, on the 6th November, 2025, in the records of Application number 53/2024 in the names Antoinette Bonello (ID 099566M) and Rosetta Thornhill (ID 051269M) vs The State Advocate and Lorenza sive Lora Gauci (ID 0300246M), the following publication was ordered for the purpose of effecting service on Lorenza sive Lora Gauci in terms of Article 187 (3) et sequitur of Cap. 12.

Whereas in Constitutional Appeal Application No. 53/2024 filed on 22 October, 2025, the appellants Antoinette Bonello (ID099566M) and Rosetta Thornhill (ID 051269M) felt aggrieved by the judgment of the First Hall Civil Court pronounced on 3rd October, 2025, limitedly as regards the liquidation of damages. The grounds of appeal are clear and manifest since:

1. The Honourable First Court was mistaken when it considered that the compensation due to the applicants should exclude the losses suffered from the proceeds when the appellants had sold the premises to their brother at a price which did not reflect the actual market price; 

2. The Court of First Instance was also mistaken when it decided that it should order the plaintiff appellants to pay half the judicial expenses incurred at first instance.

Therefore, the appellant is asking the Honourable Constitutional Court so that it confirms the present judgment in so far as it upheld the demands of the plaintiff appellants, and subsequently reform it as regards the fourth demand by the plaintiffs and uphold the demand for the payment of compensation for the fact that on the 19th December, 2020, the applicants were forced to transfer their share of this property at a reduced price which was not reflected in the current market since the premises were subject to a protected lease, and also order to vary the fifth plaintiffs’ demand by this Honourable Court to liquidate the pecuniary damages to cover the loss suffered in their selling price which did not reflect the actual market value, besides the legal interests applicable from the date of the first judgment till the date of effective payment with costs of both instances against the respondent State Advocate.

By means of a decree delivered by the Court of Appeal, Inferior Jurisdiction, on the 14th November, 2025, in the records of Application numru 44/2025 in the names San Ġiljan Local Council and Din l-Art Ħelwa versus the Planning Authority and the party called into suit Andrea Zammit Tabona (ID 235683M), the following publication was ordered for the purpose of effecting service on Andrea Zammit Tabona in terms of Article 187(3) et sequitur of Cap. 12.

Whereas in Appeal Application number 44/2025, which the appellant organisation Din l-Art Ħelwa filed on the 7th July, 2025, in the names premised, it is appealing against a decision of the Environment and Planning Review Tribunal dated 17th June, 2025, whereby the Tribunal partially upheld the appeal filed by the appellant against a decision of the Planning Commission, but dismissed other pleas filed by the same appellant. Whereas the grounds of appeal are:

1. There has been a lack of adherence to the 2015 DC Guidelines – a misinterpretation and misapplication of the law ‒ the Tribunal has not applied and has not reasonably interpreted what is expressly stated in the Policy P35 ‒ Interpretation of Building Heights in Urban Conservation areas and the Policy P4 applying height to width ratio in Urban Conservation areas of the DC Guidelines 15 ‒ the Tribunal’s determination is not based on a correct application and interpretation of the policy which should have determined whether the development is acceptable or not; 

2. There was a misinterpretation and misapplication of the law when the Tribunal did not reasonably apply and interpret what is expressly stated in Policy P39 on setback floors in Urban Conservation areas of the DC Guidelines 15 and in violation of Article 31 of Cap. 551 of the Laws of Malta ‒ the Tribunal did not inform the parties of its intention to change the form and dimensions of the retired floor before reaching its decision in breach of the right to a fair hearing of the appellants; 

3. There has been a misinterpretation and misapplication of the provisions of the DC Guidelines 15 when the Tribunal did not apply and has not reasonably interpreted what is expressly stated in G 21 on access to, and creation of open Space – the Tribunal’s determination is unreasonable and is based on irrelevant considerations

Therefore, the appellant organisation respectfully requests that this Honourable Court confirms those heads of the decision pronounced by the Tribunal above referred to whereby the Tribunal upheld the grievances of the appellant organisation and cancels and revokes those heads of decision given by the Environment and Planning Review Tribunal whereby it dismissed the grievances of the appellant organisation, and give all such provisions as it deems fit and fair, including the revocation of Permit PA 6209/22 as it is contrary to the provisions of the relevant policies.

Application number 54/2025 in the names San Giljan Local Council and Din L-Art Ħelwa vs the Planning Authority and the party called into suit, Andrea Zammit Tabona, has been deferred to the 13th February, 2026, at 9.00 a.m.

By means of a decree issued by the Court of Appeal, Inferior jurisdiction, on the 17th July, 2025, in the records of Application number 248/2022 in the names Michael Stivala vs Professor Arnold Cassola, the following publication was ordered for the purpose of effecting service on Arnold Cassola in terms of Article 187(3) et sequitur of Cap 12.

Whereas in Appeal application number 248/2022 filed on the 23rd May 2023 the appellant Michael Stivala felt aggrieved by the judgment dated 24th April, 2025, wherein the Court of Magistrates upheld the defendant’s plea and declared that the disputed publications in the original application constitute an honest opinion in terms of Article 4(2) of the Media and Defamation Act, and dismissed the plaintiff’s claim with costs against him. Whereas the grounds of appeal are clear and manifest and consist in the following:

1. As regards serious harm: the First Court said that the plaintiff, here the appellant, failed to prove that he suffered serious harm with the publications made by the defendant, here respondent. The appellant disagrees; 

2. Statement of opinion or statements of fact. The court of first instance stated that the disputed statements, taken as a whole, are to be considered as statements of opinion for the purpose of Article 4(2)(a) of Cap 579 and not statements of fact. This means that the defence of an honest opinion may be pleaded in opposition to the action. The appellant disagrees;

3. An expression of opinion on a matter of public interest. The First Court stated that the defendant’s opinion is an expression of opinion on a matter of public interest which also merits the protection of an honest opinion. The appellant disagrees.

Therefore, for the reasons above listed and explained, the appellant respectfully requests this Honourable Court to cancel and revoke the judgment pronounced on the 24th April, 2025, in the names above premised by upholding the appellant’s demands, dismissing the respondent’s reply and making the same respondent bear the costs of both instances.

Application number 248/2022 in the names Michael Stivala vs Professor Arnold Cassola has been deferred for hearing to the 25th February, 2026, to be called at 10.00 a.m.

1. Whereas the Honourable First Court could never consider that the respondent succeeded in proving title of the agricultural lease on the land in question;

2. Whereas the Honourable First Court could never consider that the applicant company did not succeed in proving that the land it owns is the same one in question.

Therefore, the appellants respectfully requests that this Honourable Court of Appeal, upholds in full the fifth, sixth and seventh demands of the appellants, by deciding that the quantum of damages and/or expenses and/or loss of profit which the respondents have already been found responsible for, should be liquidated in the additional sum of €12,284.58, which additional sum should be paid by the respondents, with the costs of both instances to be borne by the respondents.
