The court held the default judgment was regular; defendants needed to show a meritorious defence. The defendants established a meritorious defence on the historic extension and the validity/effect of the DMC through the Authority, assignment recitals and the Registrar's confirmation, but failed to discharge the obligation to produce or prove the registered mortgage and thus failed to show good title on that point. Overall the appeal was allowed and the master's order setting aside the judgment was discharged.
