Objectively reading contemporaneous letters, policy documents and the Administrator's affidavits, the Administrator had considered both the pre-existing solicitor-client relationship and the Performance Reason (capacity and ability to handle additional cases); the Performance Reason was part of the original reasons and not a post-hoc justification; Grounds 1 and 2 were not reasonably arguable and leave was refused; Ground 3 fell with Grounds 1 and 2 and was also dismissed as leave would not be granted.
