Plaintiff

AND

THE HELICOPTER LINE LIMITED First Defendant

AND

TOTALLY TOURISM LIMITED Second Defendant

Hearing:	24 April 2015
Appearances:	D J Heaney QC and A K Hough for Plaintiff T C Weston QC and R S Cunliff for Defendants
Judgment:	24 April 2015

RULING OF NATION J

[1]      I am ruling the evidence of Mr Jones objected to by the defendants is inadmissible because it is not relevant to the matters which are at issue and alternatively if there is any relevance, such relevance is outweighed by the prejudice that would be caused to the defendants by its admission at this late stage.  I will give reasons for this ruling later but advise the parties of my decision now given the impending trial.
