The applicant, Shireen Chowdhury, brought a motion to strike the respondent Parvez Chowdhury's Answer and Claim due to his persistent non-compliance with court orders, including financial disclosure, child support payments, and costs.
Despite previous adjournments and warnings, the respondent failed to comply with any terms.
The court applied the legal principles for striking pleadings, considering the extent and persistence of non-compliance, its wilful nature, and the lack of acceptable explanations.
The motion was granted, striking the respondent's pleadings for both financial and parenting issues, allowing the applicant to proceed with an uncontested trial.
Costs were awarded to the applicant.
