There was a trial in December that forced the Cayman Island government and Dart Realty to defend their road agreement.

Justice Henderson said in his verdict that time had run out for the case to be heard.

“The plaintiffs have always been well informed about the proposed road closure and can be taken to have possessed all the information necessary to advance the present claim a few days after 15 December, 2011 at the latest. There is nothing before me which justifies or even explains the 14 month delay before this action was started,” he said
