Sayers v Lord Chelwood and another: [2012] EWCA Civ 1715; [2012] WLR (D) 389

“The burden on a claimant who wished the court to exercise its discretion under section 33 of the Limitation Act 1980 to override the time limit for bringing an action in respect of personal injuries was not necessarily a heavy one. How difficult or easy it would be for the claimant to discharge the burden would depend on the facts of the particular case.”
