Key legal question
Whether the refusal to extend the response deadline under Art. 144(2) CPC was arbitrary or violated the right to be heard.
Extracted holding
The refusal was not arbitrary and did not violate the right to be heard; no sufficient reason for extension was shown.
Extracted reasoning
Art. 144(2) CPC requires sufficient, duly motivated reasons. The alleged complexity was not made plausible as an obstacle to acting, the proceedings were summary and required speed, and the debtor had a generous response period.
