RULING
I have listened to the submissions for and against the motion to join Seed Funds, Savings and Loans Ltd. to this case as 2 Defendant.
I have read all the documents filed in this application in support of the motion for joinder and in opposition.
Under Order 4 rule 5(2) (b) of C.I. 47, the Court at any stage of proceedings may on such terms as it thinks just, either of its own motion or upon an application order any person who ought to have been joined as a party or whose presence before the Court is necessary to ensure that all matters in dispute in the proceedings are effectively and completely determined and adjudicated upon to be added as a party.
The test as to whether a person is a necessary party will depend on the circumstances of each case.
