The appellants did not point directly to any error in principle or any consideration or an irrelevant factor, failure to consider a relevant factor, or overemphasis on some factor by the trial judge. They confined their submission to a recitation of authorities setting out the test for the granting of leave to amend to include a limitation defence. By reference to their factum and inference from the authorities to which their counsel referred I surmise the appellants are complaining the trial judge erred in principle when she allowed an amendment to plead a limitation defence that put the plaintiff "in an unfair position" without sufficient evidence "to support the means of knowledge test."
