The extension was refused because the intended appeal had no real prospect of success: the Judge was plainly correct to strike out the Amended Statement of Claim as disclosing no reasonable cause of action, and the plaintiff's new allegation of a verbal contract was unpleaded, lacked consideration, was too vague, failed to identify breach or how the bank would be liable, so permitting an extension would be futile.
