TypeCivilPostureApplication to set aside interlocutory judgmentCoramN.A. MATHEKA
Holding

The application is dismissed with costs to the plaintiffs.

Facts

The plaintiffs obtained a judgment against the 1st and 2nd defendants on May 27, 2021, but the defendants did not enter appearance or file defense. There was a miscommunication leading to the defendants being unrepresented.

Issues

  1. Whether the application to set aside the judgment should be granted
  2. Whether the defendants' defense raises triable issues

Reasoning

The court finds that there was proper service and the defendants acknowledged it. The application lacks merit as there are no triable issues raised in the defense.

Outcome

Application dismissed
