Retrospective leave to apply for a carry-on order was refused because P2 concealment of P1's death, prolonged and unexplained delay, and overall litigation conduct demonstrated dishonesty and met the threshold under O.2 r.5 and the Court's case management objectives to justify denial of relief; the injunction application was dismissed because the underlying basis (P1's entitlement and locus) fell away on her death, P2 lacked locus as pleaded, and the plaintiffs' evidence did not disclose a serious issue to be tried on adverse possession.
