Facts of the Case

Background

The applicants sought rescission of a default judgment granted on 8 June 2023, claiming they were unaware of the pre-trial conference and had a bona fide defence. The respondent opposed, arguing the application was filed 17 months late without condonation, service was valid via IECMS, and no defence existed on merits.
