Description
Judicature (Civil Procedure Code) Law (Jamacia): The Supreme Court of Jamaica was not deprived of jurisdiction to set aside a judgment in default of defence under s.258 of the Judicature (Civil Procedure Code) Law (Jamaica), even though damages had been subsequently assessed and a final judgment had been entered. Further, it was held that where an order to set aside a default judgment had been made without jurisdiction, a judge of a co-ordinate jurisdiction had no power to set it aside.
