Facts of the Case

Background

The applicant sought rescission of a default judgment entered against it on 29 March 2010 for US$17,116.00 plus interest. The applicant claimed it only became aware of the judgment on 4 May 2010 due to an office orderly's oversight. The respondent opposed the application, arguing the applicant had wilfully defaulted and had no bona fide defence.
