Kindly note that the position of the court is: Ordinarily the applicant (the person applying) is responsible for preparing the court bundles. If the applicant is unrepresented then the bundles must still if at all possible, comply with requirements. If it is not possible for an unrepresented litigant to comply with the requirements then a brief explanation of the reasons for this should be provided to the court as far in advance of the hearing as possible. Where possible the litigant in person should suggest a practical way of overcoming the problem. If the other party is represented then that party should consider offering to prepare the bundle.
