    Court of First Instance
    Case number
    HCA2295/2019

    The court refused the letter of request and dismissed leave to appeal because the plaintiff failed to demonstrate that the requested Gmail records were both material/necessary to the interests of justice for resolving the disputed issue and that the records exist and are likely in Google's possession; consequently the intended appeal had no reasonable prospect of success and the discretionary decision was not shown to be plainly wrong.
