Civil Revision No. 442 of 2010 1 IN THE HIGH COURT OF PUNJAB AND HARYANA AT CHANDIGARH Civil Revision No. 442 of 2010 Date of Decision: January 22 , 2010 Inderjeet Singh and others ......Petitioners Versus Karan Singh and others ...... Respondents Coram: Hon'ble Mr. Justice Ajay Tewari Present: Ms.Monisha Lamba, Advocate for the petitioners. **** 1. Whether Reporters of local papers may be allowed to see the judgment? 2. To be referred to the Reporters or not? 3. Whether the judgment should be reported in the Digest? Ajay Tewari, J. This petition has been filed against an order dated 08.01.2010 whereby the application for setting aside the order by which the predecessor-in-interest of the petitioners was proceeded against ex parte, had been declined. Learned counsel has argued that father of the petitioners had in fact died much prior viz. 16.12.2007 while he was proceeded against ex parte only on 6.6.2008. Consequently she prays that the application of the petitioners for setting aside that order be allowed. Learned trial Court has noticed the fact that this execution has been filed in a matter relating to partition of immovable property. He has Civil Revision No. 442 of 2010 2 further relied upon the report of the local commissioner viz.Naib Tehsildar who visited the site on 7.10.2008 and submitted his report wherein it has been recorded that the petitioners were present but had refused to countersign the presence sheet. Consequently learned trial court has concluded that at least on 7.10.2008 the petitioners knew that some proceedings were actively going on in the partition suit(which has been pending since 1995). In these circumstances he dismissed the application of the petitioners on the ground of limitation since the same was filed, as mentioned above, only on 25.11.2009. Learned counsel has not been able to persuade me that the impugned order suffers from such material irregularities as to merit interference under Article 227 of the Constitution of India. Consequently this revision is dismissed. However, the petitioners are at liberty to join the proceedings. (AJAY TEWARI) JUDGE January 22 , 2010 sunita
