Reinstatement was refused because the appellant's non-appearance formed part of a pattern of pre-trial non-compliance, and reinstatement would extinguish the respondent's absolute limitation defence under s.7(5) Civil Law Act 1956 causing irremediable prejudice; accordingly the appeal is dismissed and the struck-out action remains so.

• Reinstatement of struck-out action
• Pre-trial case management
• Limitation (section 7 civil law act 1956)
• Order 34 r.1(5) and r.2(3)
• Overriding objective/order 1a
