They are aggrieved by an order made therein directing the return of the plaint for presentation to the proper Court.2. It is unnecessary to set out the facts leading up to the filing of the suit as in my view, a preliminary objection raised on behalf of the respondents as to the maintainability of a petition of this nature clearly deserves to be upheld.
