    Court
    District Court
    Case number
    DCCJ90/2007

    Time to apply for leave to appeal was extended due to delay in transcript preparation, but the substantive application for leave was refused because the grounds disclosed no reasonable prospect of success: the trial judge properly accepted the plaintiff director's evidence, factual findings on use of premises and mitigation were supported by evidence, hearsay was admissible given the witness's proven incapacity and the plaintiff was entitled to costs including those of the two summonses.
