Mr.Arvindkumar Kanji Thakkar & Ors. )...Plaintiff. V/s. The Municipal Corporation of Greater Mumbai and Ors. )...Defendants. CORAM : HIS HONOUR JUDGE SHRI. KISHORE M.JAISWAL (C.R. NO.08) DATE : 20/03/2018. Ld. Advocate Andrews for the plaintiff Ld. Advocate Mrs.Kamble for the BMC/defendants no.1 to 4 None for defendant no.5. ORAL ORDER This notice of motion is taken out by the plaintiff for setting aside the order dated 9/2/2017 wherein the evidence of the plaintiff is closed. 2. Perused the notice of motion and reply. 3. Heard the advocate. 4. In the present case, plaintiff no.3 Mr. Shekhar Tayappa Shetty has filed the affidavit of examination in chief as per Exhibit10 -- 1 of 3 -- 2 and he has been marked as PW no.1. The record shows that even the cross examination of PW no.1 was partly recorded on 9/6/2016. It is submitted that as the witness was not well therefore he could not attend the Court. The said fact is reflected in para no.2 of the affidavit in support of the notice of motion as well as the medical certificate filed on record. 5. In my opinion when PW no.1 has filed his affidavit in lieu of examination in chief and even the cross examination was partly conducted by the defendant/ MCGM, the closing of the evidence in such a way would be difficult for further appreciating the same at the time of trial. Genuine reasons are shown for absence of witness on 9/2/2017. Hence for giving fair opportunity to both the parties and for properly appreciating evidence on record, this notice of motion needs to be allowed in terms of prayer clause. Hence, I pass the following order ORDER 1. Notice of Motion no. 853 of 2018 is allowed and made absolute in terms of prayer clause (a) subject to the condition that on next date i.e. 7th June, 2018 PW no.1 shall remain present before the Court for further cross examination. 3. Notice of Motion stands disposed of accordingly. (Kishore M. Jaiswal ) Addl. Sessions Judge, City Civil & Sessions Court, Gr.Mumbai. Date:20/03/2018. Dictated on : 20/03/2018.
