- High Court
The appellant's non-appearance was not excusable and did not demonstrate a miscarriage of justice under r 10.9 and applicable authorities; the merits of the proposed appeal were weak and the High Court could not sensibly adjudicate the underlying fees dispute absent a proper costs revision or challenge, therefore the application to set aside was dismissed and costs awarded.
