A high-profile legal dispute involving a mining tycoon's solicitors has taken an unexpected turn after a witness was refused entry to court due to a disagreement over a window. The bizarre incident has sparked outrage among legal professionals and raised questions about courtroom protocols.
The case, which centres around the wealthy businessman's affairs, saw tensions rise when a key witness was denied access to proceedings. According to sources, the refusal stemmed from an argument about whether the individual could properly observe events through a courtroom window.

Several solicitors involved in the case have expressed dismay at the decision, with one describing it as "unprecedented and potentially damaging to the pursuit of justice." The witness in question was reportedly crucial to establishing important facts in the ongoing legal battle.
