Court of Appeal refuses leave for the appellant/plaintiff to adduce new evidence in employment proceedings, and makes no order in respect of an application to adduce new evidence in respect of a motion seeking to extend time in which to appeal a refused discovery order, on the grounds that: (1) the application for leave to adduce new evidence is “misconceived and without merit”, failing to meet requirements of the Rules of the Superior Courts and the case law; (2) in respect of the second application, if the appellant is permitted to appeal the order of discovery, he may adduce additional evidence without obtaining leave of the court; and (3) it is not necessary for the court to make an order permitting the appellant to seek leave and is a matter for the appeal.
