The Court granted leave to appeal and extended time because there were arguable grounds: the trial judge appeared to adopt a novel theory not advanced at trial and failed to make necessary findings on danger and precautions; delay in filing the appeal was substantially caused and complicated by the Legal Aid Office's consideration under section 16 of the Legal Aid Ordinance and was excusable, justifying extension of time to preserve the appellant's right to have those arguable issues heard on appeal.
