- Court
- High Court
The Tribunal correctly found the proceeding was an abuse of process because the appellant consistently and deliberately failed to comply with an unambiguous direction to file an amended statement of claim over a period exceeding 15 months, demonstrating lack of intention to pursue the claim conscientiously; in all the circumstances the Tribunal properly exercised its discretion to strike out the proceeding.
