The counterclaim was struck out because, on the pleadings and evidentiary record, Ernst & Young Consulting Sdn Bhd owed no duty of care to Ng Ying Yiing (no proximity, no assumed responsibility, no pleaded reliance), there was no causal link between the report and her dismissal, and the claim was therefore obviously unsustainable under O.18 r.19 ROC.
