Plaintiff
Defendant
Facts: Milad Lofti and Miladtowers Consulting Ltd. alleged breach of an oral immigration services agreement (ISA) and a loan agreement by Bugga Trucking Ltd. (later corrected to Bugga Trucking Inc.), claiming damages and unjust enrichment. The defendants sought to set aside a default judgment and correct the misnaming of the company.
Issue: Whether the default judgment against the defendants should be set aside and whether the company name in the legal proceedings should be corrected from "Bugga Trucking Ltd." to "Bugga Trucking Inc."
Court's Ruling: The court set aside the default judgment due to the defendants' defenses being worthy of investigation and corrected the company name to "Bugga Trucking Inc." The court found the defendants were properly served and had willfully ignored the notice of civil claim but also recognized the oral nature of the ISA and the lack of prejudice to the plaintiffs.
Costs/Damages Awarded: Each party was ordered to bear their own costs for the applications to set aside the default judgment and to correct the misnomer, with no specific damages awarded in this decision.
