The application to re-amend was refused because the amendment amounted to a new cause of action that would be statute-barred if commenced now, was sought after inordinate delay (over ten years), would disrupt the settled trial and introduce multiple new issues, and would prejudice the defendant (recently deceased) and the interests of justice.
