None for defendants. Earlier order if any, continued till next date. Adjd for reply on N/M on 11.07.2022. Next Purpose: NM REPLYREJOINDER Next Hearing Date: 16-06-2022 Date: 16-06-2022 Business: Adv Wasim Khan for plff present Adv Rahul Salvi for def No.2 present. Adv H.I.Sirguroh for Def No.3 present. Adv for def No.2 tendered draft NM a/w supporting affidavit. Leave is granted to register NM On 15.06.2022, defendant No.3 tendered draft NM and advocate for defendant No.3 had pressed for ad-interim relief in terms of clause (b) of Notice of Motion. I have heard advocate for defendant No.3 as well as advocate for plaintiff on the said prayer of defendant No.3. Perused record. It shows that on 03.07.2020, on the NM No. 1219/20, filed by the plaintiff, ad-interim order is passed, restraining Defendant Nos. 2 and 3 from withdrawing any amount out of their respective accounts bearing account No. 2668101107134 and Ac No. 2668101106654 in defendant No.1 Bank. Initially the order was passed till 17.08.2020 and thereafter from time to time the said order is extended till date. Adv for defendant No.3 submitted that the order dated 03.07.2020 is obtained by the plaintiff by misguiding the court and plaintiff has not complied with the provisions of Order 39 Rule 3 or Rule 3A of CPC. Defendant No.3 was not in India, however, her false signature is shown in the notice. He further submitted that the amounts in fixed deposits are not appropriated in the account of defendant No.3 and those Fix Deposits will mature in 2025. He submitted that because of the order, defendant No.3 is unable to operate her account. Ultimately, he submitted that defendant No.3 may be permitted to deal with her bank account by ordering her to maintain minimum balance proportionate to the aggregate amount of Fixed Deposits, to which defendant No.3 is shown as Nominee. On the other hand, advocate for the plaintiff submits that defendant No.3 is duly served on 04.07.2020 in compliance of Order 39 Rule 3 of CPC and she was in India. Defendant No.3 was aware of the proceedings since beginning. Writ of Summons as well as Order dtd 03.07.2020 is served upon defendant Nos. 2 and 3. Defendant No.3 is requesting to vacate the order without filing reply and without filing proceeding to set aside exparte order. He is served with the copy of NM on 14.06.2022 and he requires time to file reply. Ultimately, he requested that ad-interim relief be not granted to defendant No.3. Having heard both sides at length, I have gone through the record of the case. It is matter of record that order 03.07.2020 is passed without notice to defendants. So far as objection of the defendant No.3 regarding non-compliance Order 39 Rule 3 of CPC is concerned, service affidavit filed by the plaintiff pursuant to order dtd 03.07.2020, indicates that copy of the order along with Notice of Motion and supporting affidavit is served upon defendant No. 2 and 3 on 04.07.2020. Adv for defendant No.3 submits that the signature appearing on the notice dtd 04.07.2020 is not of defendant No.3 and in fact defendant No.3 was not in India at the relevant time. However, no documents to that effect are produced on record at this stage. Moreover, the next contention of defendant No.3 that the amounts of two Fix Deposits to which defendant No.3 is shown as Nominee is not deposited in the account of defendant No.3 and those Fix Deposits will mature in 2025. In this regard as well, no documents are before the court. The order is in existence since 03.07.2020. It is hard to accept that defendant No.3 was unaware of the order till filing this Notice of Motion. Almost for last two years, no steps are taken by defendant No.3 to agitate her cause before the court. Notice of Motion filed by the plaintiff is still pending for reply. If defendants file reply to the NM No. 1219/2020, it can be heard and decided on merit expeditiously. Advocate for plaintiff raised objection that without setting aside exparte order, the NM tendered by defendant No.3 is not maintainable. However, it is the matter of record that no express exparte order against defendant No.3 is passed in the suit. Even the affidavit of service in respect of Writ of Summons is not on record. In these circumstances, in my considered view, the NM tendered by defendant No.3, without setting aside exparte order, is maintainable and leave can be granted to register the same. However, in view of the foregoing discussion, no case is made out by defendant No.3 to vacate, alter or modify order dtd 03.07.2020. Today advocate for plaintiff raised objection that NM is filed on behalf of defendant No.3 by POA holder. However, the document of POA is not annexed with the Motion. Advocate for defendant No.3 submits that he is ready to produce POA. Therefore, leave can be granted to register NM filed by defendant No.3. However, request of defendant No.3 to grant ad-interim relief in terms of prayer clause (b) of the NM is refused. Pursuant to the above order, leave is also granted to register NM tendered by defendant No. 2. Defendant Nos. 2 and 3 to tender register NM on next date and service affidavits. Matter is adjd on 24.06.2022 for Reply of NM Next Purpose: NM REPLYREJOINDER Next Hearing Date: 24-06-2022 Date: 24-06-2022 Business: Adv for plff present Adv for Defendant No.3 present Adv for def No.3 tendered registered NM a/w affidavit.
