The 4th defendant's application to strike it out is dismissed because the plaintiff's pleaded allegations disclose a reasonable cause of action and there are genuine disputed facts (employment, contractor status, noticeboards) that cannot be resolved on affidavits; striking out would usurp the trial judge's function and summary disposal is inappropriate where credibility and factual disputes require oral evidence and cross-examination.
