Holding

The application for extension of time is dismissed with costs to the respondent.

Facts

The applicant sought substitution after the death of the 2nd respondent, and an application for revival of the suit was dismissed. The applicant then sought an extension of time to file a notice of appeal, which was out of time.

Issues

  1. Whether the applicant has demonstrated sufficient reason for the delay in filing the notice of appeal
  2. Whether the applicant will succeed on appeal

Reasoning

The court found that the applicant has not demonstrated sufficient reason for the delay, and the prospects of success on appeal are unlikely.

Outcome

The application for extension of time is dismissed.
