C.R. No. 3575 of 2011 [1] IN THE HIGH COURT OF PUNJAB AND HARYANA AT CHANDIGARH. C.R. No. 3575 of 2011 Date of Decision: May 27, 2011 Ranjit Singh …..Petitioner Vs. Smt. Kamla Devi …..Respondent CORAM: HON’BLE MR. JUSTICE M.M.S. BEDI. -.- Present:- Mr.Rakesh Kumar, Advocate for the petitioner. -.- M.M.S. BEDI, J. (ORAL) Evidence of the plaintiff- petitioner was closed by order on April 15, 2011 and case was adjourned for the evidence of the defendant for May 14, 2011. It has been informed that now the case has been adjourned for May 31, 2011 for evidence of the defendant- respondent. Petitioner seeks one opportunity to complete his entire evidence. I have considered the facts and circumstances of the case. Since the trial Court had opted to adjourn the case after closing of evidence C.R. No. 3575 of 2011 [2] on April 15, 2011 for evidence of the defendant and not decided to finally dispose of the case under Order 17 Rue 3 CPC, in the interest of justice the plaintiff- petitioner can be provided an opportunity to complete his entire evidence. It appears that on account of evasive approach adopted by the plaintiff-petitioner the trial Court was compelled to close the evidence on April 15, 2011 but it appears expedient in the interest of justice to the enable the plaintiff- petitioner to complete his evidence for getting his rights adjudicated on merits subject to payment of some cost. This revision petition is disposed of in limine to save the expenses of defendant- respondent. The order dated April 15, 2011 is hereby set aside. The trial Court is directed to give one effective opportunity to the plaintiff- petitioner to complete his entire evidence at his own responsibility on one date fixed by the trial Court for the said purpose subject to payment of cost of Rs.10000/- to the defendant- respondent. The cost will be paid on next date of hearing or on the date fixed by the trial Court for the evidence of the plaintiff- petitioner. It is made clear that in case of failure on part of the plaintiff- petitioner to offer and pay the cost, revision petition will be deemed to have been dismissed. Disposed of.
