Case management
Okuashvili and others v Ivanishvili and others [2025] EWHC 165 (Ch)
This is an application by Mr Okuashvili to allow new expert and witness evidence to be adduced in his claims to set aside service out of the jurisdiction against multiple defendants. The evidence had not been served in accordance with the case management timetable set by the court. The court considered the reason for the default—that there had been a change in representation, and during the course of that change in representation, evidence which was intended to be prepared and served was not prepared and served—was unsatisfactory. Further, in regard to the witness statement, the court took into account the new factual assertions which were contested and the lateness at which evidence had been served, such that the defendants had not had opportunity to respond in not permitting the late filling of either of the items of further evidence.
