(1) IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE AT BOMBAY, AURANGABAD BENCH, AT AURANGABAD. WRIT PETITION NO. 2097 OF 2011 Shashikant s/o. Bhalchandra Wankhede, Age : 57 years, Occupation : Business, R/o. Opp. Rajiv Gandhi Shopping Center, Main Road, Chopda, Taluka : Chopda, District : Jalgaon. .. Petitioner. versus Jahadmir Sultanmir, Age : 52 years, Occupation : Driver, R/o. Ajad Chowk, Darga-ali Mohalla, Chopda, Taluka : Chopda, District : Jalgaon, and 8 others. .. Respondents. ....................... Mr. Vinod P. Patil, Advocate, for the petitioner. ........................ CORAM : B.P. DHARMADHIKARI, J. DATE : 18TH MARCH 2011 COURT'S ORDER : 1. Heard Adv. Mr. V.P. Patil, for the petitioner. (2) 2. The petitioner / original defendant has challenged the order 14-1-2011, passed by learned Joint Civil Judge (Junior Division), Chopda, below Exhibit 86 in Regular Civil Suit No. 80/2003, thereby rejecting the application filed by the petitioner for framing additional issue. 3. The trial court has already framed 9 issues and as per Issue Nos.7 and 8, the petitioner / defendant is given chance to prove ownership. The plaintiffs have claimed that defendant is tenant who has committed default in paying rent of suit premises. Issue in that respect is already framed vide Issue No. 1 and Issue No.9. Hence demand of the petitioner / defendant to frame additional issue about plaintiffs proving defendant alone to be tenant of suit premises is misconceived. The trial court has correctly applied mind. 4. I do not see any jurisdictional error or perversity. 5. In the result, the petition is dismissed. No costs. ( B.P. DHARMADHIKARI ) JUDGE ......................... bgp/wp2097
