Lewald-Jezierska v Solicitors-In-Law Ltd and others: EAT 1 Jul 2008

EAT PRACTICE AND PROCEDURE
Withdrawal
Striking-out/dismissal
This was an appeal against the Order of the Registrar in which the appellant claimed that she should be allowed to make an application out of time to set aside an Order in which her appeal to the EAT had been dismissed on her withdrawal. She alleged that she was suffering at the time from a mental illness and was not in an appropriate state properly to conduct her affairs. The EAT rejected the appeal and held that the medical evidence was far too thin; it also took into account the history of this litigation, and had some regard to the potential merits of the grounds of appeal.
