ORDER

¶34

This application has been filed by the applicants/defendants to dismiss the suit as time barred after commencement of trial. The application purportedly is based on admission, the admission elicited during the Trial/cross examination of the plaintiff's witness. The suit is otherwise ready for arguments after completion of Trail. The intention of the defendant appears to drag on the proceedings.
