Facts of the Case

Background

The applicants sought rescission of a default judgment granted against them in June 2024 which cancelled their mining special grant. They claimed they were not served with notice of set down after filing their notice of opposition. The first respondent opposed, arguing the applicants had consented to a provisional order and were barred from opposing when the default judgment was granted.
