"And here we are on March 21 friendly company - I am a lawyer and witnesses - appeared in court. Seeing our company, the judge Degoda, no explaining, refused to hold a hearing. And 2 months later, May 16, I received a letter with the agenda, from which I learned that I need to come to court on May 13. In other words, the time and place of the hearing I duly notified was not.
