The application to shorten time under r 12.7 was dismissed because the asserted factors (inability to re-let due to defendants' occupation and perceived narrowing of issues) did not constitute the very special or genuinely urgent circumstances required to abridge mandatory service periods; the absence of a supporting memorandum for an ex parte abridgement reinforced refusal.
