Plaintiff established a prima facie case based on clear, binding sale and purchase agreements containing successor‑bound clauses obliging payment of management/maintenance charges; defendant's affidavit contained only bare denials unsupported by evidence and thus failed to raise a triable issue, warranting summary judgment for plaintiff.

Application to set aside the default judgment was dismissed because service was valid, the defendant exhibited an inordinate and unexplained delay (approximately 25 months) in applying, and the proposed defence and counterclaim were mere bare denials and lacked merit; accordingly the statutory time limit under Order 42 r.13 was not complied with and the application failed.

Plaintiff satisfied the Order 14 prerequisites and defendant failed to demonstrate any genuine triable issue or meritorious defence; documentary and corroborating correspondence supported liability and defendant's denials amounted to bare denial, therefore summary judgment under Order 14 was appropriate and was granted to the plaintiff.
