Conclusions
Conclusion
For the reasons set out above:
I dismiss the Defendants’ application to set aside the Second Extension Order; and
I dismiss the Defendants’ application (i) to set aside the Claim Form and service thereof and (ii) for a declaration that the Court will not exercise jurisdiction to try this action.
I would be grateful if the parties could liaise over a final order reflecting the terms of this judgment for my approval.
