The court struck out and set aside the writ and statement of claim because the plaintiffs' LAD claims were time-barred under the Limitation Act 1953 as interpreted by the more recent appellate authority relied upon (Obata Ombak), meaning the cause of action accrued at the relevant earlier date and the claims exceeded the statutory limitation period; procedural irregularities in affidavits did not prejudice the defendant but did not salvage a substantively time-barred cause of action.
