Disclosure of partners
17.02 Disclosure of partners
If a proceeding is commenced by or against partners in the firm name under Rule 17.01, any other party may by notice served at the address for service of the partners in the proceeding require the partners to disclose in writing within 14 days of service—
the name and the address of the usual or last known place of residence or of business of each person constituting the firm at the time when the cause of action accrued; and
whether since that time there has been any change and what change in the membership of the firm.
If partners fail to comply with a notice under paragraph (1), the Court may order—
if the partners are plaintiffs, that the proceeding be dismissed;
if the partners are defendants, that their notice of defence be struck out.
