William Grantley Woodward

The appellant appealed from a trial judge's dismissal of a motion to adduce fresh evidence.

The appellant had previously sought to adduce the same evidence before the Court of Appeal, which dismissed the appeal and refused to reconsider its decision.

The Court of Appeal dismissed the current appeal, finding that the admissibility of the evidence had already been determined and that the proposed evidence did not meet the requirements for admission, as it could not reasonably be expected to have affected the result at trial.
