Exh. 10, 11 and 12 :  advocate of defendant has filed reply with affidavit on Exh. 10.  Copy served to plaintiff.
Heard advocate of both sides on Exh. 10.
ORDER BELOW EXH. 10.
      Advocate of plaintiff contended that as per Order 23 Rule 1(3) of CPC plaintiff be allowed to withdraw the suit with liberty to file fresh suit on the same cause of action. Advocate of defendant contended that the plaintiff in its application(Exh.10) nowhere mentioned the specific formal defect.
      Considering rival submission of parties, I have gone through the application Exh.10. Plaintiff has not mentioned any specific formal defect. As per Order 23 Rule 1(3) of CPC, where the court is satisfied that a suit must fail by reason of some formal defect or that there are sufficient grounds for allowing the plaintiff to institute a fresh suit for the subject matter of a suit or part of a claim, it may on such terms as it thinks fit, grant the plaintiff permission to withdraw from such suit or such part of the claim with liberty to institute a fresh suit in respect of subject matter of such suit or such part of the claim. In the present application Exh.10 plaintiff has not specifically mentioned the formal defect and therefore it is not desirable to allow plaintiff to grant liberty to file fresh suit in the same subject matter on same cause of action. Hence, Exh.10 stands rejected.
Matter is adj for hearing on Notice of Motion No.2604 of 2022 to 3.12.2022.
