Because the adjudication named a business name lacking legal status without citing the sole proprietor in his personal name trading as that business, the adjudication proceedings were a nullity and the adjudicator lacked jurisdiction; consequently the adjudication decision is void ab initio and cannot be set aside or enforced under s 28 CIPAA; locus standi/jurisdictional defects may be raised at any stage and participation does not cure lack of jurisdiction.
