    NM 4289/22 Suit 2188/19
    ORDER IN NOTICE OF MOTION NO.4289/22
    Read the affidavit in support of motion and reply filed.  Heard both the parties.  This motion is taken out by the defendant to set aside the order dated 28.10.2021 and to permit defendant to file the written statement by adopting his reply dated 12.06.2019 as his written statement.  The motion is opposed by the plaintiff by reply at Exh.10 contending that no sufficient cause is made out.  It is the contention of the defendant that affidavit in reply in 2040/2019 has been already filed on 12.06.2019.  It is contended that the defendant was under impression that the same is the written statement of the defendant.  Said motion was heard and dismissed on 28.06.2019.  On 28.10.2021 as the plaintiff defendant failed to file written statement is ordered to proceed without written statement.  Considering the fact that the defendant wants to adopt the reply as his written statement, to avoid the technicality the notice of motion is required to be allowed.  Hence, I pass following order.
    				ORDER
    1. Notice of Motion No. 4289 /2022 is allowed.
    2. Delay in filing written statement is condoned.
    3. Order dated 28.10.2021 directing the suit to proceed without 	    statement of the defendant is set aside.
    4. Reply to the motion filed on 12.06.2019 shall be considered as 	    written statement of the defendant.  It shall be kept alongwith 	    the plaint.
