Ruling by MR JUSTICE MORGAN
"But if this is done on a false basis in circumstances where there is a valid basis for subjecting him to the jurisdiction, it is not obvious why it should be mandatory for the claimant to be required to start all over again, rather than that the court should have a discretion as to the order that will best serve the overriding objective."
