Leave to cross-examine Mr Liggett was refused because his evidence did not prove any disputed material fact central to whether the IHP acted unfairly, the relevant matters could be determined from the public record and the decision-maker's affidavit, Mr Liggett was not the decision-maker, and permitting cross-examination would needlessly prolong the proceedings contrary to the thresholds in Evidence Act ss 7 and 8.
