Committing a s.275 claim by writ in breach of WU r 58(1) is a formal defect or irregularity falling within WU r 209(1) and is curable unless the defendant proves substantial injustice that cannot be remedied; UBS AG did not establish an accrued limitation defence or sufficient substantial injustice, so curative relief was appropriate and leave to appeal was refused.
