Judgment text excerpt

The Supreme Court examined an appeal concerning the rejection of a defendant's application to set aside an ex parte judgment in a civil rent recovery case. The High Court declined to interfere with the lower court's order, which had proceeded ex parte due to the defendant's non-appearance. The Court upheld the procedural validity of the ex parte decree, emphasizing the importance of proper service and adherence to civil procedure rules.
