    HCA18029/1999

    Although common questions of fact existed, they were not of sufficient importance in proportion to the other extensive issues in action no. 18029 to justify consolidation; under O.4 r.9 RHC the appropriate remedy was to set aside the consolidation order and direct that action no. 445 be tried immediately after action no. 18029 by the same judge to serve the interests of justice and to save costs.
