Background:
Li Wen Tan (Appellant) filed a lawsuit against Kai Tan and Hong Jiao (Respondents) concerning alleged financial contributions to property owned by his parents. He sought remedies based on breach of contract and unjust enrichment. The Supreme Court of British Columbia dismissed his claim in January 2024.

Legal Proceedings:
The appellant repeatedly applied for extensions to appeal the initial ruling, but his requests were denied due to missed deadlines and lack of merit. His argument focused on recently discovered evidence, a 2013 written agreement that allegedly supported his claim. The respondents denied the authenticity of this document, and the court found the evidence unreliable.

Key Legal Issues:

1. Extension of Time: Mr. Tan sought to extend the time to file an appeal, but the court denied this based on repeated delays and the absence of credible evidence.
2. New Evidence: The court dismissed the appellant's claim that the newly discovered agreement proved his case, noting it contradicted his previous reliance on an oral agreement.
3. Credibility: The court found Mr. Tan’s fresh evidence not credible, raising concerns over inconsistencies in his claims.

Outcome:
The Court of Appeal, led by Justice Riley, dismissed Mr. Tan’s application to vary an earlier order. No award or costs were explicitly stated in the judgment. The case reiterated the importance of timely and credible evidence in civil litigation.
