11 Judgments to which Part 2 does not apply
For the purposes of proceedings brought in Australia for the recovery of an amount payable under a judgment given in an action in personam by a court of a country, not being a judgment to which Part 2 applies, the court is not taken to have had jurisdiction to give the judgment merely because the judgment debtor:
entered an appearance in proceedings in the court; or
participated in proceedings in the court only to such extent as was necessary;
for the purpose only of one or more of the following:
protecting, or obtaining the release of:
property seized or threatened with seizure, in the proceedings; or
property subject to an order restraining its disposition or disposal;
contesting the jurisdiction of the court;
inviting the court in its discretion not to exercise its jurisdiction in the proceedings.
