TRUSTEE ACT (NORTHERN IRELAND) 1958 - SECT 59

Power to give judgment in absence of a trustee.

59. Where in any action the court is satisfied that diligent search has been
made for any person who, in the character of trustee, is made a defendant in
any action, to serve him with a process of the court, and that he cannot be
found, the court may hear and determine the action and give judgment therein
against that person in his character of a trustee as if he had been duly
served, or had entered an appearance in the action, and had also appeared by
his counsel and solicitor at the hearing, but without prejudice to any
interest he may have in the matters in question in the action in any other
character.
