The judge exercised discretion under Order 35(2) to continue the trial in the plaintiff's absence because the plaintiff voluntarily failed to attend after being warned that non‑attendance could lead to dismissal; the plaintiff's adjournment application lacked merit because judicial review was an inappropriate route where statutory appeal existed; accordingly the claim was dismissed and costs ordered against the plaintiff.
