The plaintiff in a suit for partition is the appellant. She challenges the rejection of the plaint on ground of non-payment of balance court fee. The defendant remains ex parte before the court below though they initially filed vakalath. Whatever that be, as the suit is one for partition, the cause of action for the plaintiff continues. Under such circumstance, the plaintiff will be eligible to file a fresh suit. We do not, therefore, consider it necessary to entertain this appeal. The same is accordingly dismissed.
