Facts of the Case
Background
The applicant, Rutendo Housing Co-operative, sought condonation for late filing of an application for rescission of a default judgment granted against it on 25 March 2020. The default judgment arose from the applicant's failure to file an appearance to defend due to non-payment of legal fees to its former legal practitioners.
