The Court refused leave because the appellant, seeking to adduce fresh expert evidence on appeal, failed to satisfy the primary Ladd v Marshall requirement by not adducing the evidence below despite awareness of relevant authorities; the questions raised were interlocutory, fact-sensitive and not of great general or public importance nor reasonably arguable, so leave to appeal to the Court of Final Appeal was not warranted and costs were awarded to the respondents.
