The application to strike out was dismissed because the Court granted the s106 exemption given exceptional circumstances rendering referral impracticable, the intitulement requirement for originating summons does not apply to divorce petitions and the petitioner proved he had abandoned his UK domicile and acquired a Malaysian domicile of choice so the Court had jurisdiction; accordingly the petition was not scandalous, frivolous, vexatious or an abuse of process.
