(1) An appearance entered after service of the initiating process must
state an address within Australia as an address for service.
(2) The appearance is effective only if it contains an address for
service.
(3) The court of issue must set aside the appearance if, on application
by the party by whom or on whose behalf the process was served, the court is
satisfied that the address for service contained in the appearance is false or
misleading.
(4) Subsection (3) does not limit the court's power to set aside an
appearance.
(5) For the purposes of this Act, if the appearance would not have been
required to contain an address for service had the initiating process been
served in the same State as the State of the court of issue:
(a) the appearance is taken to contain an address for service if it
states an address of the person entering the appearance; and
(b) that address is taken to be the address for service.
