A. Introduction
[1] The Plaintiff seeks to withdraw this claim with liberty to file afresh in accordance with O 21 r 3 of the Rules of Court .
[2] After considering the chronology of this case and the fact that the case has not been set down for trial and the merits have not been considered by this Court, I find that the Plaintiff should be allowed to withdraw this claim subject to payment of costs to the Defendants and that it should be given liberty to refile the claim if it wishes to do so. Costs as ordered by this Court must be paid in full to the Defendants before any new suit could be filed by the Plaintiff.
