“The court’s power to grant judgment in default under CPR Pt 12 could be exercised notwithstanding the fact that part of the relief sought by the claimant turned on a question of European law which was the subject both of an unresolved appeal to the Court of Appeal and of a reference by that court to the Court of Justice of the European Union.”
