Order XXIII of Civil Procedure Code, 1908 deals with withdrawal vis-a-vis declares the effects of withdrawal. It means the abandonment of part of a claim in a suit and compromise of suits i.e., adjustments of the suit. Withdrawal of suit is bifurcated into two viz., absolute withdrawal and qualified withdrawal.

You can file a petition before the court under the above referred provision of law through your advocate.

Court allows means that the court should allow the petition filed by you for withdrawal of the suit. 

Believe your advocate has already briefed you about the procedures to be followed in this regard
