Procedural Posture

Personal Injury / Application for Leave to Appeal

  1. 1 Whether the proposed appeal has a reasonable prospect of success
  2. 2 Whether the applicant's illness justified absence from the case management conference
  3. 3 Whether delay in receiving a written order excuse late appeal

Ratio Decidendi

The application for leave to appeal was refused because the applicant failed to demonstrate a reasonable prospect of success or any other compelling reason: she provided no adequate evidence that illness prevented attendance, had sufficient time to respond to the respondent's affidavit, and delay in receiving a written order did not excuse late appeal; therefore leave to appeal was properly denied and costs awarded against her.
