Abstract: Given a metric space $langleX,hoangle$, consider its hyperspace of closed sets $CL(X)$ with the Wijsman topology $a{u}_{W(ho)}$. It is known that $langleCL(X),a{u}_{W(ho)}angle$ is metrizable if and only if $X$ is separable and it is an open question by Di Maio and Meccariello whether this is equivalent to $langleCL(X),a{u}_{W(ho)}angle$ being normal. In this paper we prove that if the weight of $X$ is a regular uncountable cardinal and $X$ is locally separable, then $langleCL(X),a{u}_{W(ho)}angle$ is not normal. We also solve some questions by Cao, Junnilla and Moors regarding isolated points in Wijsman hyperspaces.
