The Supreme Court granted leave to appeal regarding the scope of a certificate issued for a case involving serious rape. The applicant argued the certificate's description of the legal issue restricted the court's examination, while the opposing party contended it was merely informational. The court ruled that the certificate does not bind the Supreme Court and cannot limit the substantive handling of the case beyond the grant of leave.
