- High Court
Leave was granted to the first and second defendants to file the amended statement of defence pleading estoppel because, although legally distinct from contributory negligence, the estoppel plea was a factual reframing of the earlier contributory negligence defence, no significant prejudice or delay was demonstrated and the interests of justice required that live issues be before the Court; the Court declined to order further particulars under Rule 5.48.
