  1. LORD JUSTICE CLARKE: There is before the court an application for permission to appeal by the first and second defendants against a decision of Langley J, made on 18th May 2001, in which he held that certain Part 20 claims proceedings were not discontinued against any of the claimants or Part 20 defendants and that the defendants were not to raise, thereafter, any claim against the claimants or the four or five Part 20 defendants arising out of the same, or substantially the same, facts as the defendants' Part 20 claims, either in arbitration or corporate proceedings, in this or any other jurisdiction.
  2. By a letter dated 4th December 2001 written on behalf of the applicants, and in particular Dalmore Products, it was made clear that the applicants did not wish to proceed with the application because:
  3. "We have seen no grounds or reasons to do it now."
  4. In these circumstances the proper course is to dismiss the application.
  5. Order: Application dismissed.
