Order 54 — Effect of Non-compliance
Rule 1 Non-compliance with Rules
Non-compliance with any provision of these Rules, except otherwise stated, shall not render any proceeding void unless the Court so directs. But the proceedings may be set aside wholly or in part as irregular, or amended, or otherwise dealt with in such manner and on such terms as the Court may deem fit and just.
Rule 2 Setting aside for irregularity
(1) An application to set aside a process or proceeding on account of noncompliance for irregularity or for being a nullity, shall not be allowed unless made within a reasonable time, and when the party making the application has not taken any fresh step in the proceedings after knowledge of the defect, non-compliance or irregularity.
(2) An application to set aside under these Rules shall be made by Motion on Notice showing clearly the grounds upon which the application is based.
