- Court of Appeal
Application to recall dismissed because appellant's grounds lacked merit: the Court correctly applied r 37 and its earlier minute preserved respondent's right to seek strike-out for non-payment of security; the appellant's bankruptcy vested the appeal in the Official Assignee; recall powers are narrow and must be exercised only for very special reasons; appellant had notice and failed to appear, and costs remain at the Court's discretion.
