You can appeal to the Supreme Court, but only if the court gives you permission. The court's permission is called leave. If another law mentions the Supreme Court's leave, it must follow sections 74 and 75. You need to look at sections 74 and 75 to understand how the Supreme Court's leave works. These sections are part of the Senior Courts Act 2016. They help explain how the court's leave is given. If you want to know more about how this works, you can look at the links to sections 74 and 75, which are sections 74 and 75.
