REAGAN & REAGAN (RE-OPENING)

In the matter of *Reagan & Reagan (Re-opening)*, the applicant wife sought leave to re-open proceedings to adduce further evidence. The specific nature of the underlying dispute between the parties is not detailed in the provided text, but the application concerned the admission of new affidavits filed on 1 March 2013 and 15 March 2013. The decision was made by Forrest J.

The central legal issue before the Court was whether to grant the applicant wife leave to re-open the case to present the aforementioned affidavits. This required the Court to consider the principles governing the re-opening of proceedings and the admission of fresh evidence after the close of evidence or submissions.

Forrest J granted the applicant wife leave to re-open the case and adduce the further affidavits. The Court's reasoning and the specific legal principles applied are not elaborated upon in the provided text, beyond the granting of the application itself.

The Court ordered that leave be granted to the applicant wife to re-open the case and put into evidence the further affidavits filed on 1 March 2013 and 15 March 2013. The costs of and incidental to this application were reserved, and the Court certified for counsel.
