The provision contained in this rule that the plaint shall be rejected in the four cases mentioned in the rule is mandatory. In a case, therefore, where the relief claimed was properly valued, but the plaint was written upon paper insufficiently stamped, and the plaintiff, on being required by the court to supply the requisite stamp paper, failed to do so, it was held that the plaintiff should not be allowed to amend the plaint by omitting the prayer in respect of which the extra court fee was directed to be paid and that the plaint should be rejected.
