253. The judge shall grant the application for revocation of judgment if he is satisfied that the grounds alleged are serious and that the defendant has a ground for contesting the merits of the judgment.
Where the application is granted, the parties are placed in the position they were in before the trial and the judge may thereupon recommence the trial or adjourn the new trial to a later date.
