The Court allowed the plaintiff's Order 14 summary judgment application because the plaintiff met the procedural prerequisites and produced a contractually conclusive Certificate of Indebtedness; the defendants failed to raise bona fide triable issues or to show manifest error by affidavit, their substantive challenges were either abandoned or raised too late in submissions, and admissions and the foreclosure order confirmed default; therefore summary judgment was justified and costs were awarded to the plaintiff.
