Where a defendant has failed to acknowledge service, O.65 r.9 and relevant authority (notably The Iran Nabuvat) permit the plaintiff to proceed to default judgment without separate service of the Notice of Motion; HSBC's supporting evidence established a well-founded claim under the secured loan and ship mortgage and judgment was properly entered for the amounts claimed with costs to HSBC.
