THE HON'BLE SRI JUSTICE L.NARASIMHA REDDY CIVIL REVISION PETITION Nos.568 and 565 of 2009 COMMON ORDER: These two revisions arise out of the orders passed in two different I.As. in the same suit, namely O.S.No.300 of 2002 on the file of the Principal Junior Civil Judge, Rayachoty. Respondent No.1 filed the suit against the petitioner (defendant No.4) and respondent Nos.2 to 4 (defendant Nos.1 to 3) for the relief of perpetual injunction in respect of the suit schedule property. The trial of the suit commenced and the evidence on behalf of the plaintiff as well as defendant Nos.1 and 2 was concluded. It is stated that the arguments in the suit have already been advanced. At that stage, the petitioner filed I.A.Nos.1183 and 1184 of 2008 with a prayer to reopen the evidence of defendants and to permit her to adduce her evidence. She pleaded that the matter was pending for quite some time and at the relevant point of time, she could not approach her counsel on account of ill-health. The trial Court dismissed the applications mainly on the ground that the suit is an identified one and it is at an advanced stage. Notice before admission was ordered on 11.02.2009. It is stated that respondent No.1 has been served, but she did not enter appearance. Heard the learned counsel for the petitioner. It is, no doubt, true that the suit is pending since long time and it has become overdue for disposal. At the same time, the petitioner cannot be denied the opportunity, particularly when she pleaded independent rights for herself vis-à-vis the suit schedule property. This Court is of the view that she can be required to conclude her evidence on the date fixed by the trial Court and to proceed with the matter within one week. Hence, the civil revision petitions are allowed and the orders under revision are set aside. I.As. are allowed and the petitioner shall appear on a date fixed by the trial Court for her evidence and on the same day, the evidence in chief and cross- examination shall be completed. Arguments, if any, shall be advanced on her behalf on the next date of hearing and the trial Court shall dispose of the suit within one month from the date of reopening. There shall be no order as to costs. ______________________ L.NARASIMHA REDDY,J Dt: 04.06.2010. kdl
