ACTION – Cause of Action – When is a cause of action said to be pending in court

“As Lord Jessel, M.R., put it in Re: Clagett’s Estate, Fordham v. Clagett (1882) 20 Ch.D. 637 at 653, “A cause is said to be pending in a Court of justice when any proceeding can be taken in it. That is the test. If you can take any proceeding it is pending.”
