Duferco SA v. CVG Ferrominera Orinoco SA
[2021] EWHC 824 (Comm)
Key Principle
A claimant may seek summary judgment rather than judgment in default against a non-engaging defendant where there is good and proper reason to do so, and the prospect of a judgment on the merits being more readily enforceable abroad than a default judgment constitutes such a reason.
