The Court of Appeal dismissed the appeal because the trial judge’s findings that the will was valid and that the testatrix had capacity and approved the will were supported by credible evidence; the appellant failed to particularise any arguable error, improperly sought to introduce new evidence, and adjourning the trial or granting a transcript was not warranted; the trial judge acted within her discretion in managing the trial and excluding material outside the record, so there was no basis to overturn the judgment or to grant a stay.
