IN THE HIGH COURT OF PUNJAB AND HARYANA AT CHANDIGARH Civil Revision No.7474 of 2009(O&M) Date of Decision 16.12.2009 Lalit Kumar ...... Petitioner VERSUS Kamlesh Rani ...... Respondent CORAM:- HON'BLE MR. JUSTICE A.N.JINDAL Present: Mr.Sushil Bhardwaj, Advocate, for the petitioner. ***** A.N.JINDAL, J(ORAL): Aggrieved against the order dated 25.09.2009, passed by Civil Judge (Senior Division), Amabala, whereby defence of the petitioner- defendant has been struck off, he has preferred this petition. Notwithstanding the fact that the petitioner-defendant failed to submit his written statement, taking note of the fact that he may not lose his case for want of submission of his defence, one more opportunity needs to be extended. However, the plaintiff could be compensated with costs. As such, this petition is disposed of with a direction to the trial Court to provide one opportunity to the petitioner to file written statement subject to payment of Rs.10,000/- as costs. This petition is disposed of without issuing notice to the respondent(s) with a view to impart complete justice to the parties and to save huge expenses which may be incurred by the respondent(s) as also in order to avoid unnecessary delay in adjudication of the matter. If, still dissatisfied, the respondent(s) may move this Court for recalling this order. (A.N.Jindal) Judge 16.12.2009 mamta-II
