Email Question: Civil Suit-misrepresentation

"Dear Sir, Would appreciate your advice as follows 1. If I am summoned to court for a civil case and I arrive there without a lawyer. Can I request the judge for a postponement in order to get a lawyer 2. I am a company that have its own brand of products but manufactured by third parties. I have signed a distribution agreement with a local company for the sale of my products. Now the local company is suing me as the products didnt function well. He is pursuing a case of misrepresentation that led him to sign the agreement. My question is - Can he do this - What is the burden of proof required to pursue misrepresentation - Will the court consider that the company was well informed about the products and even visited the factory where they were made, to be fully informed.

My deepest sympathy to the victims and their family may the deceased rest in peace. Since this blog is about legal, let us review what is the outcome of the last case of Highland Tower, hope the case will give some ideas to the effected parties on their rights, bellow is the exact case report of the case (quite lengthy) but worth reading; STEVEN PHOA CHENG LOON & ORS V.
