Leave to appeal was refused because the proposed questions of law were not capable of bona fide and serious argument on the established facts: the appellant suffered a pre-existing episodic mental disorder prone to recurrence and the broken arm was not shown to be a causative factor rather than one of many possible triggers, so the statutory test of connection 'because of' was not met in a way that would justify further appeal.
