Anon@08:29, I think Derek was referring to the four month / six month Claim form validity in respect of which there is no discretion and contrasting it with the application for service under CPR 7.7.

Incidentally I once made an application for this, on behalf of a Defendant to a dog bite claim in Shrewsbury County Court.

DJ refused to make any order at all saying that he had "never heard" of that provision and it therefore didn't apply to personal injury claims and was only for shipping cases(!) (No idea where the shipping cases came from, I think maybe there was a shipping case in the notes to the white book for that rule or something).
