The claim by the minority plaintiffs disclosed no reasonable cause of action because the alleged wrong was one to the association which had validly discussed and ratified the contract at a properly convened extraordinary general meeting and thereafter by the new executive committee; disclosure by the chairman was sufficient; no fraud or ultra vires conduct was pleaded; consequently the statement of claim was an abuse of process and was struck out under Order 18 r.19 and the court’s inherent jurisdiction.
