. I'm having my first Directions Hearing at the Federal Court in a few days. The other side prepared an amended Initiating Affidavit and I was meant to provide a Response to their amended Affidavit.
My legal Rep said it's not necessary for this hearing so I'm not providing a Response.
My question is, will not responding have any negative affect on my case? Or are Response Affidavits not compulsory at this stage?
Ie does not providing a Response to the Amended Initiating Affidavit, mean any delays or further hearings?
