.. Respondent/Plaintiff
Application praying that this Hon'ble Court be pleased to strike out of the name of the 3rd Defendant in the abvoe suit.
This Application coming on this day before this Court for hearing, the Court made the following order:
This application has been filed by the 3rd defendant in the suit seeking to strike him out from the array of parties.
2.The applicant would claim that he was only a paid employee of the 1st defendant and he only acted on the instructions of the 2nd defendant, who is the President of the 1st defendant and as such, he cannot be made personally liable for whatever transactions that had taken place between the https://hcservices.ecourts.gov.in/hcservices/ plaintiff and the defendants 1 and 2.
3
4.In order to ensure that the 3rd defendant co-operates with the trial of the suit, I had directed the 3rd defendant to file an affidavit undertaking that he would co-operate with the trial of the suit, even if he is struck off from the array of parties. The 3rd defendant had expressed his inability to file an affidavit. I therefore, conclude that if the 3rd defendant name is struck off from the array of parties, he will, definitely, not co-operate with the trial thereby, causing serious prejudice to the plaintiff. Hence, this application is dismissed.
