Heard Adv. Mr. S.S. Deshmukh, for the petitioner. 2. The petitioner has challenged the order dated 7-3-2011, passed by the learned 3rd Joint Civil Judge (Junior Division), Shrigonda (District : Ahmednagar), below Exhibit 33 in Regular Civil Suit No. 93/2008. 3. The petitioner / defendant, who raised objection to valuation of suit property and, therefore, to pecuniary jurisdiction of the court of Civil Judge (Junior Division), after about two years filed an application seeking adjudication in that respect first. The trial court has by reasoned order, rejected that application. 4. The trial court has noticed that respondent / plaintiff has already filed affidavit of examination in chief and matter was adjourned for his cross examination. The consideration, therefore, does not appear to be either erroneous or perverse. The issue about pecuniary jurisdiction is already framed by the trial court and it will be looked into while deciding other issues. (3) 5. In the result, the petition is dismissed. No costs. ( B.P. DHARMADHIKARI ) JUDGE ......................... bgp/wp2973
