The Full Federal Court granted the respondent leave to amend its notice of contention to raise all issues directed to whether a binding contract had been formed, rather than limiting the amendment to the single question of uncertainty. The Court held that the question of contractual formation should not be fragmented or confined, and that the potential injustice of limiting the respondent's arguments outweighed any prejudice from a slight delay, with costs of the adjournment and amendment ordered in favour of the appellant.
