THE HONOURABLE SMT. JUSTICE T. MEENA KUMARI C.R.P.No. 2532 of 2006 ORAL ORDER: The learned counsel for the petitioner present. The learned counsel for the respondents is absent. The Civil Revision Petition is filed against the orders of the learned VII Senior Civil Judge, City Civil Court, Hyderabad in I.A.No. 943 of 2005 in O.S.No. 81 of 2001, dated 28.3.2006 to condone the delay of 52 days in filing the petition to set aside the exparte order dated 15.4.2005. Brief facts of the revision are that: 1st Respondent herein is the plaintiff, who filed O.S.No. 81 of 2001 before the lower Court against the respondent No.2 herein who is the defendant No.1 before the lower Court and petitioner herein, who is the defendant No.2 before the lower Court. For the purpose of convenience, the parties as arrayed before the lower Court are referred to hereinafter in this order. Heard the learned counsel for the petitioner. Plaintiff filed O.S.No. 81 of 2001 before the lower Court for specific performance of contract. The defendant engaged their counsel and defendant No.2 did not file his written statement and did not attend adjournments and as such he was set exparte and suit was finally decreed on 15.4.2005. It is contended by the petitioner in the affidavit filed in support of the petition that due to personal problems viz. his wife expired and that on coming to know about the exparte decree, he filed the present petition to condone the delay of 52 days in filing the petition to set aside the exparte order dated 15.4.2005. Under these circumstances, I am satisfied with the averments made by the petitioner in filing the petition with 52 days delay and it is a fit case to condone the delay. Accordingly, the order of the court below is set aside and the Civil Revision Petition is allowed. No costs. _______________________ T. MEENA KUMARI, J 8.4.2010 CHV
