THE HONOURABLE SRI JUSTICE N.V. RAMANA CIVIL REVISION PETITON No. 3960 of 2011 ORDER: This civil revision petition is directed against the order dated 16.04.2010 passed by the Senior Civil Judge, Madanapalle, Chittoor District, dismissing the application in E.A. No. 63 of 2000 in O.E.P. No. 43 of 2009 in O.S. No. 206 of 2005, filed by the petitioner praying to send the Xerox copy of the partition deed to the District Collector for determination of stamp duty and collection of poundage. Heard the learned counsel for the petitioner and the learned counsel for the respondents and perused the order under revision. Admittedly, the xerox copy of the partition deed, which the petitioner sought to mark in evidence, was disallowed to be marked by the Advocate Commissioner, who was appointed to record the evidence of the parties, on the ground that it is secondary evidence. Undisputedly, the original partition deed is filed in other proceedings on the file of the Junior Civil Judge, Madanapalle. The law is well settled that only an original document can be sent for determination of stamp duty and collection of poundage, and since the document, which the petitioner sought to send to the District Collector, for determination of stamp duty and collection of poundage, is a xerox copy, the Court below refused to send the same to the District Collector, for impounding, and no fault can be found with such a reasoned order. However, considering the fact that the original partition deed is filed in other proceedings, the Court below granted liberty to the petitioner to call for the same and file fresh application for sending the same to the District Collector for determination of stamp duty and collection of poundage. The order passed by the Court below does not suffer from any error warranting interference by this Court in exercise of its supervisory jurisdiction under Article 227 of the Constitution of India. The civil revision petition is devoid of merit and is accordingly dismissed. No costs. __________________ JUSTICE N.V. RAMANA 9th December, 2011 IBL
