State lnstitution “Health Department of Almaty Region” v International Academy of Medicine and Sciences LLP

The Defendant sought an extension of time and permission to appeal two AIFC Court judgments arising from a dispute over increased construction costs for a hospital project. The Court refused both requests, finding that the appeal against the first judgment was significantly out of time and that no satisfactory explanation for the delay had been provided. The Court further held that none of the proposed grounds of appeal had a realistic prospect of success, as they largely challenged factual findings already determined at trial or sought to raise new arguments that could not be introduced on appeal.
