Application to add JMB as a second defendant was dismissed because the claim is a statutory/contractual claim against the registered account holder (Defendant), prior appellate findings established the Defendant as the registered user, the plaintiff cannot be compelled to join a third party absent evidence that the proposed co-defendant is necessary for effective adjudication, and the court declined to exercise its wide discretion under O.15 r.6 in favour of joinder; costs of RM2,000 awarded to plaintiff.
