- DCCJ5025/2004
Because the 1st Defendant was outside the jurisdiction when the Writ was served, service by insertion through the letter box did not comply with O.10 r.1(2)(b) RDC; the summary judgment obtained on that defective service was irregular and was therefore set aside; the 1st Defendant's delay was excused given his prolonged absence and lack of legal advice, so the application was within a reasonable time; subsequent participation in proceedings did not cure the original irregularity.
