Order passed below Notice of Motion No.4807 of 2019
Perused Notice of motion, affidavit in support of it, reply of plaintiff and Roznama in the present suit. Heard respective counsel for parties.
Present Notice of motion is taken out by the defendant for condoning delay caused in filing reply and written statement by her and to set aside impugned order dated 07.10.2019 and to take her written statement and reply on record.
It is the contention of defendant that because of poor financial condition she has not engaged Advocate in the present matter and unable to understand nature of suit filed by the plaintiff. However, she regularly attended the Court in present matter. On 07.10.2019, this Court has passed order of no reply in relation to Notice of Motion No.2342 of 2019 against the defendant. It is contended that due to unavoidable circumstances she could not file her written statement and reply in prescribed time. She has good defence in present suit and if her written statement and reply are taken on record then no prejudice would be caused to the plaintiff. On the other hand if reply and written statement are not taken on record then defendant will suffer irreparable loss. Accordingly, she prayed in above terms.
Plaintiff filed reply on Notice of Motion itself and strongly objected to Notice of motion on the count that period of delay in taking out Notice of motion is not mentioned and prayed to dismiss Notice of motion.
Before adverting to the facts I would like to mention that it is a settled law that Order VIII Rule 1 of CPC is not mandatory and in specific circumstances written statement can be accepted with reasons. It is also held that in an adversarial system, no party should be denied an opportunity in participation of the justice dispensation system (Salem Bar Association V/s Union of India 2003 AIR SCC 189 and Zolba V/s Keshav 2008 AIR SCC 2099). In view of this legal position, now, I consider notice of motion.
On perusal of Roznama, it is apparent that initially plaintiff appeared in person in present matter and he has engaged Advocate for the first time on 02.11.2019 i.e. after passing of impugned order dated 07.10.2019 whereby Notice of Motion No.2342 of 2019 has been proceeded without reply of defendant. In above circumstances, possibility could not be ruled out that she could not understand about the various stages in present proceeding and consequences of her failure to give reply in relation to the proceeding taken out against her. In the facts of matter delay caused cannot be said to be intentional and deliberate. In the interest of justice and fair trial, it is not just to deprive defendant from contesting the matter on merits. Therefore, I am inclined to allow present Notice of motion subject to imposing certain costs upon defendant keeping in view her conduct. Hence, pass following order.
ORDER
1. Notice of Motion No.4807 of 2019 is allowed and made absolute in terms of prayer clause (a) subject to payment of costs of Rs.1,000/-(Rupees One Thousand Only) to the plaintiff within period of two weeks from the date of this order.
Defendant is at liberty to deposit the costs payable to plaintiff in the Court.
2. On payment of costs, written statement and reply of defendant be taken on record and marked exhibit.
3. Accordingly, notice of motion is disposed off.
