invoked the president's liability
By "appelant en garantie" his boss, he's basically saying "it wasn't my fault". Implead is simply to sue which does't really fit here.

Bourth (X)
: Since it's a company, the Chairman will not (normally) be personally liable, will he? But yes, this is the gist. XYZ WANTS the Chairman to be held liable (presumably company bankruptcy is on the horizon!)

The point is
taht while "implead" might not be common everyday UK (or anywhere else) English (I've certainly never had call to use the word!), it IS legalese, and that is your register.
Though an argument was advanced by the learned counsel for the appellant that the suit was hit by Order 2 Rule 2 C.P.C., the counsel could not substantiate the same as it was not a case of forgoing or relinquishing a part of the claim and filing a suit for the remaining claim, but it was a case where the creditor had failed to implead the guarantor or the surety along with the principal debtor at the time of filing the earlier suit. The court below had taken the view that the guarantee being a continuing one and as the appellant had not revoked the guarantee as stipulated therein and the liability of the principal debtor was kept alive consequent on the decree obtained by the bank, the suit was not barred by limitation.
