Difference between MIS-JOINDER & NON-JOINDER

 

MIS-JOINDER

NON-JOINDER

When mistakenly a party was added to the suit is misjoinder. That means when a party was added but he doesn’t have to do anything with the present issue then it considered to be misjoinder.

When a party is necessary to the suit and he was not added to the suit, then it is a non-joinder.
In case of misjoinder the court should not dismiss the suit rather; may order in such kind as the order not bind on the misjoined party and the relief should be sought only upon the respective necessary party.

When the court found about the non-Joinder of the party who are necessity to the suit, and adjudicating on such matter without them is a matter of waste, then the court can dismiss the suit, or may order the plaintiff to add the necessary parties or may add the party on their own.

There is no possibility of dismissal, since it won’t much affect the interest of the party at large.There is a possibility. Of dismissing the suit, in respect to the effectiveness of the decree/order.
