Undefended proceedings
11.—(1) For the purpose of this Order proceedings shall be treated as undefended if—
(a)no defence is entered and the defendant—
(i)fails to appear at the hearing; or
(ii)appears at the hearing (whether personally or by a solicitor) for the purpose only of requesting that time be allowed for the payment of such amount; or
(b)the judge in any special circumstances so directs.
(2) Notwithstanding anything in paragraph (1), in an undefended action for damages the judge may direct that the plaintiffs costs shall be in accordance with Table 1 in Part I or Appendix 2 instead of Table 3 thereof and it shall always be within the judge's discretion to allow counsel.
