Procedure on rejecting plaint

Full Text

Where a plaint is rejected the Judge shall record an order to that effect with the reasons for such order.

Plain English Summary

Mandates that every judicial order rejecting a plaint must explicitly record detailed reasons, serving as the formal basis for appellate decree adjudication.

Key Legal Elements

  • Speaking Order Mandate: Reasoned order is indispensable; cryptic rejection is unsustainable.
  • Formal Basis for Decree: The reasoned order forms the decree under Section 2(2) for regular appeal.
  • Judicial Accountability: Ensures appellate scrutiny of the grounds of rejection.

Practical Note

Appellate Requirement: The order rejecting the plaint must be a speaking order. An appellate court will remand the matter if the trial judge rejected the plaint without addressing each statutory requirement of Rule 11.
