RSA No. 755 of 2010(O&M) 1 IN THE HIGH COURT OF PUNJAB AND HARYANA AT CHANDIGARH Civil Revision No. 3117 of 2010(O&M) Date of Decision: May 12 , 2010 Sarup Singh ...... Petitioner Versus Gagandeep Singh and others ...... Respondents Coram: Hon'ble Mr. Justice Ajay Tewari Present: Mr.Ramesh Chand Sharma, Advocate for the petitioner. **** 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 the order allowing application for amendment of the plaint at a stage when the written statement had just been filed. The respondents had filed a suit for specific performance of an agreement to sell dated 13.6.2002. In para 3 of the original plaint it was mentioned that prior to the date fixed i.e. 6.2.2003 the respondent-plaintiffs had given another amount of Rs. 10 lacs to the petitioner-defendant and as per the endorsement of even date the time was extended up to 6.2.2006. After the petitioner-defendant filed his written statement the instant application for amendment was filed. In this application it was mentioned that as per the endorsement dated 6.2.2003 possession of the land had also RSA No. 755 of 2010(O&M) 2 been handed over to the respondent-plaintiffs. However, despite the fact that the endorsement had been specifically pleaded, this fact was inadvertently not mentioned. The learned trial Court, on a conspectus of the entire facts, has allowed the application for amendment primarily on the ground that it has been filed just at the initial stage of the case as also the ground that it would not change the nature of the litigation. In my opinion no such material irregularity has been pointed out so as to be liable for interference under Article 227 of the Constitution of India. Consequently this petition is dismissed. Since the main case has been decided, the pending Civil Misc. Applications, if any, stand disposed of. (AJAY TEWARI) JUDGE May 12, 2010 sunita
