The court dismissed the defendant's motion for leave to file additional evidence after cross-examination due to irrelevance and lack of adequate explanation.
The defendant sought leave under Rule 39.02(2) to file additional evidence (articles, text messages, emails) after cross-examination, in response to the plaintiff's allegations of psychological abuse affecting the limitation period.
The court dismissed the motion, finding the evidence largely irrelevant, of slight probative value, and that the defendant failed to provide a satisfactory explanation for its late inclusion, as the abuse allegations were raised early in the proceedings.
