Aysun Pty Ltd v Cregan (No 2)

Aysun Pty Ltd (the applicant) sought to set aside a judgment entered against it in favour of Cregan (the respondent). The application was heard in the Court of Appeal of New South Wales by Allsop P and Handley AJA.

The primary legal issue before the Court was whether the judgment previously entered against Aysun Pty Ltd should be set aside. This involved considering the principles governing the setting aside of judgments, particularly in circumstances where a party seeks to challenge an order after its entry.

The Court dismissed the application, finding no basis to set aside the judgment. While the specific reasoning is not detailed in the provided text, the outcome indicates that the applicant failed to satisfy the necessary legal threshold for setting aside an entered judgment. The Court's decision implicitly applied the principles of finality of judgments and the limited grounds upon which such judgments can be disturbed, such as fraud, mistake, or a miscarriage of justice, none of which were evidently established.

The notice of motion dated and filed 8 August 2011 was dismissed with costs.
