Facts of the Case

Background

The applicant sought rescission of a default judgment granted against it, claiming improper service of the original application at an address that was neither its domicilium citandi nor registered office, and service on an unknown person. The court found service was valid at the applicant's registered office and the applicant was in wilful default.
