The master found the writ, though posted to the defendant's company address, did not come to the defendant's notice until 8 October 2019 based on convincing evidence (including corroboration by the company's financial controller); accordingly the default judgment was irregular and was set aside unconditionally because the defendant discharged the burden of showing non‑receipt and demonstrated a meritorious defence that the sum was repayment on behalf of Mr Wu rather than a loan.
