( 1 ) IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE OF BOMBAY, BENCH AT AURANGABAD WRIT PETITION NO. 1949 OF 2010 Gayabai w/o Ganpatrao Saudagar Since deceased, by her Lrs. Lata w/o Dattatraya Ranjankar and others. PETITIONERS VERSUS Maruti Ramchandra Saudagar and others. RESPONDENTS ..... Mr. S.B. Talekar, advocate for the petitioners. ..... [CORAM : V.R. KINGAONKAR, J.] [DATE : 11th June, 2010] PER COURT : 1. Heard counsel. 2. The petitioners are original defendants No. 22 (1) to 22 (4). The respondent No. 11 filed an application (Exh-89) in the suit (Spl.C.S. No. 158/2000), seeking indulgence of the trial Court to send the original agreement dated 09-06-1960 and the document at Exh-76 to the handwriting expert for his opinion. The application was allowed by the trial Court. It is the ( 2 ) contention of the petitioners that the respondent No. 11 had no locus standi to file any such application and the documents should not have been referred to the handwriting expert. In my opinion, sending of the document to handwriting expert is within the discretion of the trial Court. When the genuineness of the document is disputed, the discretion exercised by the trial Court cannot be stamped as arbitrary. Nothing perverse or illegal is noticed from the impugned order. Hence, the petition is dismissed. No costs. [ V.R. KINGAONKAR ] JUDGE NPJ/wp1949-10
