Illustration for Motor Vehicle Sales Act 2003

You can appeal a decision made by the Registrar under the Motor Vehicle Sales Act 2003. The District Court can make an interim order before your appeal is finalised. This order allows you to keep running your motor vehicle trading business. You can get an interim order with conditions set by the District Court. The District Court decides what conditions are suitable. These conditions are part of the interim order. If the District Court says no to your interim order, you can appeal this decision to the High Court. You have one month to do this after the District Court refuses your order. You can find more information about the District Court Act 2016 on the legislation website.
