IN THE HIGH COURT OF PUNJAB AND HARYANA AT CHANDIGARH C.R. No. 2931 of 2010 (O&M) Date of Decision: 5.5.2010. Lachhman Singh ....Petitioner Versus Shri Phulla @ Phullu ...Respondent CORAM : Hon'ble Mr. Justice Rajesh Bindal Present:- Mr. Sanjay Verma, Advocate for the petitioner. RAJESH BINDAL, J **** Challenge in the present revision petition is to the order dated November 11, 2009 passed by the learned Court below whereby the evidence of the petitioner-plaintiff was closed by order of the Court as he had failed to conclude his evidence in spite of sufficient opportunities granted. The petitioner is son of the respondent-defendant. Learned counsel for the petitioner submitted that the relevant documentary evidence could not be produced on account of lapse of the counsel who was representing the petitioner-plaintiff before the Court below. Infact after a new counsel was engaged he pointed out defects in the evidence already led by the petitioner as material documentary evidence had not been produced on record. It is only thereafter that the petitioner sought to challenge the order closing his evidence which was passed way back on November 11, 2009. He further submitted that the documents sought to be produced on record are material for the purpose of decision of the case between the parties. After hearing learned counsel for the petitioner, I do not find any reason to interfere in the present petition at this belated stage against the impugned order passed on November 11, 2009 especially on the ground that it is only when new counsel was engaged by the petitioner-plaintiff and he pointed out defects in the evidence already led. If this reason is to be accepted as a valid reason regarding an order passed about six months back, there would be no end to litigation as change of counsel will be a valid ground for filing any type of application at any stage of trial. After close of evidence of the petitioner on November 11, 2009, even evidence of the defendant has started. The revision petition is accordingly dismissed. (RAJESH BINDAL) 5.5.2010. JUDGE Reema
