- HCCT5/1999
The defendant is entitled to rely on the contention that the bond had expired (complete performance) so the demand was not made during the bond's validity; that contention raises a factual dispute precluding summary determination under Order 14A. Consequently the application to strike out the defence was refused except insofar as the allegation about authorised signatories was struck out.
