In the matter of Mantis International Pty Ltd [2019] NSWSC 165

The proceedings were dismissed because Mr Talisin had repeatedly failed for nearly a year to comply with clear directions requiring an amended originating process and supporting evidence, despite multiple extensions and warnings. Further adjournment would not promote the just, quick and cheap resolution of the real issues, and the evidence as it stood did not establish any basis for reinstatement of the deregistered company or for extending time to permit further evidence.
