The defence and subsequent reply constituted steps which waived any right to default judgment; the claim falls within the District Court's monetary jurisdiction (costs and interest excluded for jurisdictional calculation) and, absent compelling reasons, the court will exercise its discretion to transfer cases within District Court jurisdiction to the District Court to allocate judicial resources appropriately.
