The 2nd defendant was struck out because there was no cause of action pleaded against the bank, it had committed no wrongful or unlawful act, and the dispute over ownership of the joint account was solely between the plaintiff and the 1st defendant; the bank could only act under the mandate or by court order and therefore was not a necessary party.
