- HCAP8/2007
Leave was refused because the Plaintiff deliberately elected not to call the witness, failed to comply with the court direction to disclose, delayed unreasonably in bringing the application, and failed to show sufficient cogency or probative value to justify the collateral inquiries and prejudice to the defence; exercising case‑management powers under Order 2 Rule 5 and Order 1A the court concluded the prejudice and disruption outweighed any limited probative value.
