The application was refused: the 1st Defendant remains a party because the pleadings show live issues against him; his presence is necessary for the court's exercise of equitable jurisdiction; an earlier striking out application had been decided against him by Yeung J.; and the application was unduly late after directions and pre-trial steps. The undertaking to abide by any order did not suffice to excuse participation.
