The judge noted that even on the last occasion, the hearing was deferred to enable him to take steps for the payment of the court fees for his Rs 10 crore claim, and rejected the lawsuit at this stage.
«You file a fresh suit. Matter can't be kept pending,» the judge said.
«Looking at the nature of the controversy, the court finds that until the plaintiff pays the court fees, the court will not be able to proceed and the court gives liberty to re-file the suit after payment of court fees,» the court ordered.
Dikshit, who contested the Delhi Assembly polls against former chief minister and AAP supremo Arvind Kejriwal from the New Delhi constituency, had filed the lawsuit in January, seeking Rs 10 crore as damages from the AAP leaders for their alleged defamatory statements against him.
