The summons was dismissed because the plaintiff's case contained material inconsistencies, unexplained documentary gaps (notably the missing 5th bill), and suspicious connections that collectively gave rise to real doubts and triable issues as to authenticity of the key negotiable instruments and the validity of the debt; consequently both defendants established arguable defences and are entitled to trial rather than summary judgment.
