The application to strike out was dismissed because the plaintiff failed to show the amended defence was plainly and obviously unsustainable or an abuse of process under Order 18 r 19(1)(b) and (d); the court held that consent judgments do not automatically bar a party from filing a defence and that striking out is inappropriate where issues of fact or law require fuller consideration and where justice may permit amendment of pleadings.
