Kaneria v Kaneria and others: [2014] EWHC 1165 (Ch); [2014] WLR (D) 177
‘An in-time application for extension of time was not to be treated as if it were an application for relief from sanctions, but was to be judged against the overriding objective rather than CPR r 3.9. When dealing with an in-time application, the court was not to give paramount status to the considerations of enforcing compliance with rules, Practice Directions and orders.’
