The court refused to strike out the pleaded estoppel by convention, estoppel by representation and variation by conduct as not plainly and obviously defective: the plea did not create a new cause of action beyond the claim, could properly be pleaded in the Reply, the particulars (including the Answer dated 29 June) were not plainly insufficient or privileged, and the variation plea was arguable; the part of the summons seeking further and better particulars was also dismissed as unnecessary and late given the stage of proceedings and existing particulars and directions for trial.
