(b)

the party against whom the order was made does not comply with it.

A party may obtain judgment with costs by filing a request for judgment if—

(a)

the order referred to in paragraph (1)(a) relates to the whole of a statement of case; and

where the party wishing to obtain judgment is the claimant, the claim is for—

(i)

a specified amount of money;
