    Court
    High Court

    Documentary evidence (written order specifying 3.0m panels, delivery receipt signed in good order, timing of the complaint) and conduct (partial retention to complete a building, request not to repossess all goods) showed no arguable genuine and substantial dispute; Rexon failed to establish a valid defence or an arguable counterclaim, so the statutory demand was upheld for the calculated sum and the application to set aside was dismissed.
