- CACV155/2016
LKH came on record without having the papers or instructions required to comply with court directions, failed to take reasonable steps to obtain papers or apply to cease to act, and made no timely application for extension or adjournment; that serious dereliction and contumelious non-compliance justified dismissal of the appeals for want of prosecution and a wasted costs order against LKH in the sum assessed at $50,000 to compensate the plaintiff for costs occasioned after 16 December 2016.
