The court refused permission to re-amend because the proposed amendment was a late introduction of a new customary rule that would cause real and potentially irremediable prejudice to the Plaintiffs by necessitating fresh evidence and altering trial scope; the court also refused to adjourn the trial for an interlocutory appeal because the circumstances were not sufficiently exceptional, the plaintiffs would suffer prejudice from delay, and interlocutory appeal prospects did not justify interrupting the trial.
