AI summary
The Western Cape High Court dealt with a Rule 30 application about alleged irregular steps in action proceedings. The court recorded that the summons was served by affixing it to a gate and by email without authority, and that the particulars of claim were said to be vague and embarrassing. The order condoned the late filing, set aside the summons and particulars of claim as an irregular step, and made no costs order.
This appears to concern civil procedure, service of summons, pleadings and Rule 30 practice.
Evidence from source
1. Condoning the late filing of this application. 2. That the Respondent’s/Plaintiff’s action application (the summons and particulars of claim) be set aside in its entirety as an irregular step in terms of Rule 30.
