Motion to set aside default judgment and permit corporate representation by an officer dismissed.
The defendants sought to set aside a default judgment in a trademark infringement action and requested leave for an officer to represent the corporate defendant.
The Federal Court dismissed the motion, finding the defendants failed to provide financial evidence showing they could not afford a lawyer as required for corporate representation.
Furthermore, the defendants did not provide a reasonable explanation for failing to file a statement of defence or establish a prima facie defence on the merits to set aside the default judgment.
