At the ex parte leave stage under Order 52 rule 2 the court performs a prima facie filtering exercise and is not to decide admissibility or resolve credibility; Cheng\'s solicitor\'s affirmation was justified given the 1st Defendant\'s incapacity to attend and the solicitor\'s interviews; the Statement disclosed a reasonable cause of action on the pleaded facts; the two letters did not amount to material non-disclosure that would have prevented the court granting ex parte leave, so the ex parte leave was correctly granted and should not be set aside.
