JUSTICE S.D.ANAND. Present: Mr. Rajinder Goyal, Advocate for the petitioner. Mr. Ashish Kumar, Advocate for the respondent. ***** S.D.ANAND, J. The petitioner is a successful plaintiff in whose favour a suit for specific performance was decreed by the learned Trial Judge, vide judgment and decree dated 3.6.2008. It was directed that the defendant- respondent shall execute a registered sale deed in favour of the plaintiff- petitioner on payment of balance sale consideration, and charges ancilliary thereto, by the latter. The plaintiff-petitioner did not deposit the amount aforesaid in time. He overshot the period by about one month. The plea put forth by the plaintiff-petitioner for enlargement of time was declined by the learned Trial Court, vide impugned order dated 19.8.2008. The petition deserves to succeed in view of the law laid down in Darshan Gir Vs. Surjit Kaur 2001(1) R.C.R. (Civil) 371. In that case, Civil Revision No.5090 of 2008 -2- **** this Court held that the Court can extend the time in the context if reasonable sufficient cause is shown to its satisfaction. In that case too, the averment was that the delay had occurred because the Clerk of the learned counsel for the plaintiff did not inform the party. Likewise, in this case also a similar averment has been made. In the light thereof, the petition shall stand allowed. The impugned order shall stand set aside. The petitioner shall deposit the balance sale consideration, and the charges ancilliary thereto, within one month from today. February 05, 2009 (S.D.Anand) Pka Judge
