- FCMP201/2017
Leave to apply out of time was refused because the applicant failed to discharge the burden: she did not demonstrate an arguable case fit for trial nor provide satisfactory reasons for a 205‑day delay; available evidence suggested mutual financial dealings and potential mutual dependency, she failed to disclose her means, and her conduct in relation to third‑party proceedings (failure to defend and loss/sale of the property) and unproductive negotiations did not justify exercising the court's discretion to extend time.
