Leave to file the narrowly focused witness statement was granted because the evidence was relevant to a live issue (whether the plastic bag pre-existed DCH inspection), the statement was limited in scope so would not jeopardise the 4-day trial, and defendant was afforded 28 days to reply; however the plaintiff’s failure to explain the lateness justified adverse costs treatment so costs of the Summons were ordered to the defendant to be taxed if not agreed on an indemnity basis.
