Facts of the Case
Background
The applicant sought an anti-dissipation order to prevent the respondents from dissipating USD360,000 that had been transferred following a default judgment. The applicant had defaulted in filing its notice of opposition in case HCHC 196/22, resulting in a default judgment against it on 10 October 2022. Upon learning of the judgment on 12 October 2022, the applicant filed a rescission application on 13 October 2022 and simultaneously sought an anti-dissipation order to freeze the funds.
