The application to set aside the registered summary judgment was dismissed because the defendant's proposed defence lacked a real prospect of success; although the bereavement excuse was accepted, procedural failures and unjustified delay (including misuse of legal aid process) and prejudice to the plaintiff outweighed grounds to set aside; costs were ordered against the defendant including a barrister's brief to be assessed by summary assessment and paid immediately.
