Leave to appeal was refused because the defendant failed the first Ladd v Marshall requirement: it did not show reasonable diligence in obtaining the alleged further evidence given the time and opportunities available, the documentary differences were discernible and the partial judgment rested on the defendant's admission so the further evidence would not have altered the outcome; no sufficient interest of justice existed to grant leave; the Judge's exercise of discretion was not shown to be wrong.
