- HCCT7/2008
The court dismissed the application to file the affirmation out of time and the unsupported Notice of Motion because filing without a supporting affidavit and ignoring the 21-day statutory limit amounted to an abuse of process, the applicant gave no satisfactory excuse for the more-than-two-month delay, the late filing prejudiced the respondent and the proposed grounds predominantly raised factual issues or lacked an arguable error of law; accordingly leave was refused and the motion dismissed.
