The leave to withdraw with liberty to bring a fresh suit given by the District Munsif was conditional on the plaintiff paying the costs of the former

suits on or before a specified date. The time fixed for the performance of the condition had expired when the present suit was instituted. This

distinguishes the present case from the case of Abdul Aziz v. Ebrahim Molla 31 C.K 965, where no time was specified within which the condition

was to be performed, and in fact the condition had been performed when the second suit came in for trial Peria Muthirian v. Karappanna Muthirian

29 M.K 370, is not in point, for there the time for payment had been extended by the Court which made the order for payment. As regards the

2nd point, the plaint as correctly translated alleges that the plaintiff sues on behalf of himself and the villagers. So far as the plaintiff is concerned,

there is no new title and no new cause of action. So far as the villagers (by which word tenants are intended) the plaintiff is not entitled to sue on

their behalf for it is not alleged in the plaint that he is a tenant.
