Article 10
Reasonable Time
(1)
The court shall ensure that, so far as is practicable and in harmony with the requirement of doing justice, each case is dealt with expeditiously. Upon request or on its own motion the court shall order a party to abstain from causing unreasonable delay. A party who fails to comply with the orders of the court in this respect may be held in contempt of court or subject to other sanctions, such as the preclusion of the belated arguments.
