Judicature Act 1908

23.15 Order for registration

• (1) The order giving leave to register a judgment or part of a judgment—

  • (a) must state the period, being a period computed from the date of service of notice of registration, within which an application may be made to set aside the registration; and

  • (b) must prohibit enforcement of the judgment until after the expiration of the period stated in paragraph (a).

  (2) Unless the court otherwise orders, the period stated under subclause (1)(a) must be the same as would apply under the general rules to the filing of a statement of defence in a proceeding.

  (3) The court may, on an application made at any time while it remains competent for any party to apply to have the registration set aside, grant an extension of the period (either as originally fixed or as subsequently extended) during which an application to have the judgment set aside may be made.

  (4) It is not necessary to serve an order made under subclause (1) on the judgment debtor.
