The Statement of Claim disclosed a reasonable cause of action because the plaintiff pleaded ownership of copyright in specified original drawings and served those drawings, and the pleaded allegation that the defendant manufactured and sold articles reproducing those drawings met the requirements of the Copyright Act 1956; lack of granular particulars of points of similarity did not justify striking out at this interlocutory stage, and it was not plain and obvious that the action was frivolous, vexatious or an abuse of process, so the strike out application must be dismissed.
