It is only plaintiff who can delete the deft. but if you can plead and show by evidence that you were not party to the transaction under question,you may ask for compenmsatory cost for dragging your client to the court falsely. Or if by pleading of the pltff.no cause of action is shown against your client,you may file an application under o.7 rule ll for rejecting the suit against your client..

First of all file written statement on behalf of your client as defendant no. 2 and raise preliminary objection qua the cause of action against your client and then file a separate application under order 7 rule 11 of CPC seeking rejection of plaint against your client and this application shall be decided first so prove your case.
