The Court refused leave to appeal because the impugned construction of Clause 3 (that the July 12 date referred to arrival in Hong Kong for commissioning, not delivery to the buyer) was correct, did not depend on undisclosed industry practice, and the issues raised were case-specific and did not present matters of great general or public importance; further, the unavailable witness's statement would not have changed admissibility principles for construing the contract.
