1048By means of a decree given by the Court of Appeal on the 27th June, 2018, in the records of the Application in the names Carlo Muscat vs Jazz Cave Ltd, Application Number 309/17, the following publication was ordered for the purpose of service of the respondent Carlo Muscat, in terms of Article 187(3) et sequitur of Cap. 12.
By means of an Application, filed in the Court of Appeal, in the records of the Notice Number 309/17, in the names Carlo Muscat (ID 105788M) vs Jazz Cave Ltd (C 75655) on the 13th March, 2018, the appellant defendant company Jazz Cave Ltd (C 7655) respectfully pleaded:
That by a partial judgement given by the Small Claims Tribunal on the 23rd February, 2018, the Tribunal decided the cause by rejecting the demands of the appellant company in order that it be authorised to present a late reply with its contestations to the plaintiff's demands and declared it contumacious.
That the appellant company felt aggrieved by this partial judgement of the Tribunal and is filing this Appeal in terms of Article 8 of Cap. 380 of the Laws of Malta, in order to ask this Court to cancel and revoke the judgement appealed in toto in so far as it rejected all the demands of the appellant company and this because the judgment appealed was an arbitrary judgement that violates the principles of natural justice once the respondent company was not allowed to present its reply and was declared contumacious notwithstanding the fact.
… omissis …
That the appellant company submitted that when it recieved the Notice of the Claim and the Notice of Hearing, by mistake and due to an oversight and because they did not understand the nature of the documents, they failed to present a reply within the term given by Law.
… omissis …
That the appellant company submits that the Tribunal was mistaken when it declared that the company quotes Regulation 12 of the Regulations regarding the Small Claims Tribunal, but this does not exist. On the contrary this Regulation 12 truly exists and is found in the Subisidiary Legislation with number 308.01 entitled 'Rules Relating to the Small Claims Tribunal' which Article reads as follows.
… omissis …
The appellant company insists that when the interpellant company received the said Notices and even after the date when the reply had to be filed it was not assisted by an Advocate for this case and thus in terms of Regulation 12 above mentioned when a party is not assisted by an Advocate or another professional representative, the Adjudicator can free the party from the consequences there may be in the lack of observance of one of the regulations.
… omissis …
That the appellant company gave a valid justification why it did not appear personally during the first sitting of the 27th October, 2017.
… omissis …
The Tribunal ignored the fact that during the second sitting of the 19th January, 2018, the Director of the appellant company Mohsaen Selim Mansour AL Hawary appeared for the sitting.
… omissis …
That although Article 13 of Cap. 380 of the Laws of Malta provides that 'if the defendant fails to appear, the adjudicator can decide the cause in default of the defendant', the Tribunal always has the discretion in this regard.
Once the appellant company provided a justification because it failed to appear personally during the first sitting of the 27th October, 2017, and appeared personally during the second sitting, in the humble opinion of the appellant company the Tribunal had to exercise this discretion in favour of the appellant company.
In this regard the appellant company refers to the judgement of the Small Claims Tribunal, Claim Number 30/2008, in the names John Bartolo vs Celestino Cini, Court of Appeal, by Honourable Judge Philip Sciberras.
Thus for the reasons above brought forward and other reasons according to law that can be brought forward during the pleading of this Appeal, the appellant company humbly prays this Honourable Court to uphold all its demands and declare that it is authorised to present a late reply with a formal contestation to the demands of the respondent applicant and revoke and cancel the judgment appealed of the Small Claims Tribunal in whole and send back the records to the Tribunal for a decision according to law, with costs of this appeal against the respondent applicant.
