[Claim for specific performance in respect of a single sale & purchase agreement where not all joint purchasers are before the Court – striking out] Justin & Christina Chin was the counsel for the Defendant. The Plaintiffs and 2 others jointly purchased a piece of land Lot 4562 and another land Lot vide 2 respective sale and purchase agreements. The Defendant raised amongst others that the Plaintiffs has no locus standi to proceed for specific performance without the other 2 co-purchasers The Defendant applied to strike out the case which was allowed by the Court and the Court amongst others held that an undivided/joint owner of the land does not have locus standi to sue without joining other joint owners and hence, the Plaintiffs who have “equal share” in both lands have no locus standi here without including the other joint purchasers.
