1. The applicant, who is the plaintiff in the proceedings, sought an order by application on the papers pursuant to Pt 6 of Ch 13 of the Uniform Civil Procedure Rules 1999 that the signature of the defendants to the request for trial date be dispensed with and the proceeding be placed on the call-over list with allocation of a trial date.

1. The return date for the application was 24 February 2003.  After the respondents had been served with the application and supporting material the request for trial date was returned signed.  By a facsimile transmission of 24 February 2003 the defendants’ solicitors notified the registrar of the court that the defendants agreed to pay the applicant/plaintiff’s costs of and incidental to the application on the standard basis.  In that circumstance the parties seek to have the application adjourned to the registry and accordingly that order is made.
