- HCA1043/2012
The summons was granted because the solicitors had in fact ceased to act and had terminated their relationship with the defendants after months of unsuccessful attempts to contact them; the court accepted the undertaking to file an affirmation of service and, given the defendants' prolonged absence and the imminent trial, it was appropriate to dispense with personal service and allow removal from the record; no costs were awarded because the claimed sum lacked particulars and there was no justification for a costs order.
