Facts of the Case
Background
The applicant sought rescission of a default judgment granted against it on 16 July 2025. The default occurred when the applicant's legal practitioners erroneously uploaded heads of argument that had been signed by the Designated Officer who presided over disciplinary proceedings instead of being signed by the legal practitioners themselves.
