Where no defence is lodged, a plaintiff can take a case to get the judge to rule that one must be put in or the case settled or whatever. The bottom line is that this is all noise and scenery. All we are interested in is the oversight and how we get there as quickly as possible. The Department using us as a tool in its arsenal without consulting us is a matter for a slap on the hand certainly, if it happened. However, the Department's ambition is perhaps no different than ours in having the matter resolved and providing for appropriate oversight.
