CMPMO 105 of 2009. 5.3.2009 Present: Mr. Rakesh Jaswal, counsel for the petitioners. Heard learned counsel for the petitioners. The grievance made in this petition is that the learned Court below was wrong in rejecting the application moved by the petitioners-defendants praying that the suit filed against them may be dismissed as the Court had no jurisdiction and on the other grounds as raised in the application. It will be open to the petitioners herein to raise all such pleas in his written statement if not already raised. The Court will also permit the petitioners to amend their written statement incorporating such pleas as detailed in the application filed by him. This course of action is necessitated because the question of jurisdiction, whether territorial or pecuniary or other grounds raised, have to be determined after striking of issue(s) and leading evidence. Obviously, civil -2- suit cannot be dismissed merely on the asking of the defendants. This petition is accordingly disposed of. Pending application(s) shall stand disposed of. March 5, 2009(PC).
