The judgment concerns an application to rescind and set aside a default judgment granted against the applicant for arrear contributions in a sectional title scheme. The court considered issues including service of summons, rule 18(6), alleged prematurity of the summons, wilful default, and whether the defences raised were bona fide. The application was dismissed with costs, including counsel’s fees on Scale C.

This may be relevant to sectional title bodies corporate, managing agents, and property owners dealing with default judgment and rescission applications.
