Abstract

This article presents information on the conditions when a person has a right to sue. According to one view a man can invoke the aid of the law only when he has a good cause of action and should not come into court unless he can succeed. The second theory gives a man a right to appear when the case is really doubtful, either in law or in fact. A third idea is that any man can appear in court who honestly believes that he has a cause of action. The third view, however, is that on which the courts in Great Britain act. The case 'Callisher v. Bischoffsheim' stands in Great Britain today for the proposition that a party has a right to sue when he believes that he has a good cause of action.
