the case is that the defendants have by way of information in a note to the dept of government stated that the exchange of letter of intent and further correspondence that took place between the plaintiff and the defendant is advised to to be a binding document as between the plaintiff and the defendant. now the plaintiff has filed the suit for specific relief on the basis of such letter of intent and letters of the defendant to the government for the specific performance of the said contract the terms of which are contained in the correspondence that took place between the parties.
the defendants contend that the letter was merely a letter of intent and not binding contract and the letters to the government cannot be said to be binding as the plaintiff was not party to such letter. please help me with the solution alongwith section and case law if possible.
my query is that whether such suit is maintainable?
