Extension of time to appeal was refused because the proposed appeal had no real prospect of success: the amended statement of claim failed to disclose essential elements of a defamation cause of action (no pleaded publication to third parties, no pleaded defamatory words or particulars, no causal link to the massive claimed quantum) and the defects were incurable on the face of the pleading; the Master's costs order was not shown to be unreasonable.
