        (2)         The Court shall make an order reinstating the appeal only if it is satisfied that there was reasonable cause for the failure of the applicant to appear at the hearing of the appeal or the application under section 34(1), as the case may be.

        (3)         Sections 25, 26 and 28 apply with all necessary changes —

            (a)         to an application for, or order of, reinstatement under this section; and

            (b)         upon the making of the application or order,

                as if they were respectively an application for leave to appeal and an order granting leave to appeal.
