    Court
    District Court
    Case number
    DCCJ2167/2016

    The court set aside the 3 November 2017 order because material related proceedings involving the same property and a secured creditor were not disclosed; plaintiff and her former solicitors failed to assist the court as required by case management rules; the existence of concurrent litigation would have materially affected the exercise of the court's discretion to grant declaratory and transfer relief at that interlocutory stage; therefore the unsealed order is cancelled and the plaintiff's summons is adjourned to be heard with the related actions.
