NO. 01) Adv. Swati Sawant for DH present. Adv. Aurup Dasgupta with Adv. Ms. Sonam Ghiya I/b Jangiani Narula and Associates present for applicant Gavin Almeida (Infinity Group) present. Application filed by JD for further oral examination in chief of applicant Gavin Almeida. Say filed by Ld. Counsel for the decree Holder on Exh. 13 on application itself. Order below Exh. 13 Read application and reply. Heard. The Ld. counsel for the applicant / objectionist submitted that at the time of marking exhibit the document at serial no. 5 of Exh. 3a, the Ld. predecessor of this court held that the applicant is at liberty to prove the document as per law and similarly he had the document at serial no. 4 of Exh. 3 which were also not marked as exhibit. He therefore submit that the applicant be permitted to prove the document by oral examination in chief. The Ld .counsel for the Decree Holder opposed the prayer on the count that the application is not maintainable. The stage is for cross examination. The applicant has to take appropriate steps for proving the document. The documents were marked as exhibits and the matter was placed for cross examination. Still applicant / witness had not entered the witness box. No doubt the matter is pending for cross examination of the applicant, but in order to avoid further complications and to afford fair opportunity to the parties, in the interest of justice, the application needs consideration. Hence, it is expedient to pass following order. ORDER 1. Application (Exh. 13) is allowed. 2. Applicant is permitted to lead further oral examination in chief. 3.

Judge -- 12 of 16 -- Noting : 26/06/2019 13 C. R. No. 01 26/06/2019 SU-163/14 CORAM : H.H.J.SHRI M. S. AZMI (C. R. NO. 01) Adv. Mhatre for plaintiff present. Adv. Deogirikar for deft. no. 3 present. Adv. Meenu Singh for deft. nos. 1 and 2 present. Order below Exh. 12 Read application. Heard Ld counsel for deft. no. 3. It is submitted on behalf of deft. no 3 that he has tendered the copy of counter claim to the original plaintiff on 18.7.2018. The written statement to counter claim was filed on 12.2.2019 by the plaintiff without seeking condonation of delay in filing the written statement. He would submit that as per Order VIII rule 1 of the CPC the written statement is required to be filed within 30 days and with the leave of the court within 90 days. The written statement was filed after six months and therefore the order dated 12.2.2019 is required to be modified. On perusal of the record it appears that no written statement order was not passed. The written statement was tendered on 12.2.2019. It was taken on record. The counsel for the original deft. no. 3 was not present on that day. The roznama dated 5.3.2019 speaks that the counsel for original deft. Nos. 3 was present and on that day no such application was moved on behalf of deft. no. 3 or objection was taken. This application was tendered on 9.4.2019 after a period of two months of taking written statement on record. The provisions of order 8 rule 1 of CPC are directory. Even otherwise when the written statement of the original plaintiff is taken on the record by the predecessor of this court, it would not be proper for this court to review the order when there is no apparent illegality. No prejudice would be caused to the original deft. no. 3. The application needs no consideration. Hence, the application (Exh. 12) is rejected. Intervener Mr. Harshit Mhatre is presnet. He seeks time to engage new advocate for hearing Chamber summons. Granted as a last chance. Adv. Meenu Singh tendered registered NM 889/18. TOR. Heard argument on NM No. 889/18. Order below NM 889/18 This Notice of Motion is tendered by original defendant nos. 1 and 2 for condoning the delay in filing written statement to the counter claim of original defendant no. 3. The Ld. counsel for defendant nos. 1 and 2 submitted that due to financial constrain and illness of the defendant no. 1 the written statement to counter claim cannot be filed within stipulated time. The original deft. no. 3/ plaintiff did not seriously opposed the leave for condonation of delay. It is settled position of the law that, at the time of entertaining the application for condonation of delay, the court should not adopt hyper technical and pedantic approach. In the interest of justice Notice of Motion needs consideration. Hence it is expedient to pass following -- 13 of 16 -- Noting : 26/06/2019 14 C. R. No. 01 Exh 13 order. ORDER 1. Notice of Motion No. 889/18 is made absolute in terms of prayer clause (a) and (b). 2.

The counsel for the defendant no. 2 and 3, by letter dated 3.3.2017, enclosed Death Certificate of defendant no. 2, but did not furnish the details of the legal representatives of defendant no. 2. He again, by letter dated 7.3.2017, wrote to the counsel for the defendant no. 2 to furnish the particulars of legal representatives of defendant no. 2. He would submit that the counsel for the deft. no. 2 and 3 made statement before the Hon'ble High Court on 7.8.2017 for providing the particulars of legal representatives of deft. no. 2. He would submit that the the counsel for deft. no. 2 provided the same on 8.9.2017. Accordingly the affidavit was sworn and the chamber summons was tendered on 4.10.2017. The chamber summons is opposed by deft. no .3 on the count that the prayer for setting aside abatement is not made. Application for bringing the legal representatives is moved after the period of 90 days. The plaintiff has no sufficient cause for delay and therefore the chamber summons needs to be rejected. On perusal of the prayer it reveals that the prayer for setting aside abatement is not made. The Ld. counsel for the plaintiff placed reliance upon the judgment of the Hon'ble Supreme Court in the case of Mithailal Dalsangar Singh and Ors. Vs. Annabai Devram Kini and Ors., (2003) 10 Supreme Court Cases 691, where in the Hon'ble Apex -- 14 of 16 -- Noting : 26/06/2019 15 C. R. No. 01 Court held that, “8. Inasmuch as the abatement results in denial of hearing on the merits of the case, the provision of abatement has to be construed strictly. On the other hand, the prayer for setting aside an abatement and the dismissal consequent upon an abatement, have to be considered liberally. A simple prayer for bringing the legal representatives on record without specifically praying for setting aside of an abatement may in substance be construed as a prayer for setting aside the abatement. –-------. A prayer for bringing the legal representatives on record, if allowed, would have the effect of setting aside the abatement as the relief of setting aside abatement through not asked for in so many words is in effect being actually asked for and is necessarily implied. Too technical or pedantic an approach in such cases is not called for.” The Ld. counsel for the deft. no. 3 pointed out the judgment of the Hon'ble Supreme Court in case of Katari Suryanarayana and Ors. Vs. Koppisetti Subba Rao and Ors. in Civil appeal no. 2240/209. He pointed out that the Hon'ble Apex court has laid down the principle for dealing with the application of setting aside abatement and criteria for considering the application for condonation of delay. He would submit that the application is casually drafted without any particulars and materials of sufficient cause. At the outset it is pertinent to note that, the suit is of the year 1981. The defendant no. 2 expired on 29.1.2017. Immediately after his death i.e. on 20.2.2017 the counsel for the plaintiff requested the advocate for deft. nos. 2 and 3 to supply the details of legal representatives of deft. no. 2. Subsequently reminders were made but it appears that the counsel for the deft. nos. 2 and 3 did not supply the particulars of the legal representatives of the deft. no. 2. On the contrary, by letter dated 3.3.2017, the counsel for deceased deft. no. 2 informed the counsel for the plaintiff to delete the name of deft. no. 2 and there is no requirement for furnishing the particulars of legal representatives of deceased deft. no. 2. The counsel for the deft. no. 2a made statement before the Hon'ble High Court for giving the list of the legal representatives of deft. no. 2 and subsequently on 8.9.2017 the list of legal representatives were provided. After considering the sequence of the events, as narrated above it appears that the plaintiff has made efforts to get the particulars of the legal representatives of defendant no. 2. In spite of his efforts he could get the particulars of legal representatives of deft. no. 2 after expiry of period of limitation. In dealing with such type of application, when this court is the fact finding court, should not adopt hyper-technical and pedantic approach. If the present chamber summons is considered it would not be prejudicial to the right of the defendants. In view of the law laid down by the Hon'ble Apex court in the case of Mithailal (Supra), the prayer for bringing legal representatives on record impliedly includes the prayer for setting aside abatement. Therefore, the objection put forth -- 15 of 16 -- Noting : 26/06/2019 16 C. R. No. 01 by the ld. counsel for deft. no .3 is not acceptable. In view of the forging reasons the Chamber summons needs consideration. Hence it is expedient to pass following order. ORDER 1. Chamber Summons No. 1005/2017 is made absolute in terms of prayer clause (a) and (B) subject to cost of Rs. 2,000/-to be paid by the plaintiff to the defendant no. 3. 2. Plaintiff to carry out necessary amendment within the mandatory period. 3. payment of costs is subject precedent. _______________________________________________ Adjourned for compliance to 10.7.2019.
