- High Court
Leave to defend granted because the defendant's non est factum plea combined with his language limitations created a real possibility of miscarriage of justice if default judgment were entered; leave granted on strict, enforceable terms (timelines for pleading and disclosure, penalties for non-compliance including automatic judgment) and indemnity costs awarded for defendant's prior defaults with quantum reserved for later determination.
