In the High Court of Punjab and Haryana at Chandigarh Civil Revision No. 1311 of 2009 Date of decision: 23.7. 2009 Joginder Singh ......petitioner Versus Kuldip Kaur and others .......Respondents CORAM: HON'BLE MRS. JUSTICE SABINA Present: Mr.Harinder Sharma , Advocate. for the petitioner. **** SABINA, J. Vide this revision petition, the petitioner has challenged the order dated 10.9.2008 (Annexure P-6) passed by the Additional District Judge, Ferozepur on an application filed by the petitioner under Order 9 Rule 4 of the Code of Civil Procedure ('CPC' for short) for setting aside the dismissal of appeal in default vide order dated 12.1.1987 (Annexure P-1). After hearing learned counsel for the petitioner, I am of the opinion that there is no ground for interference by this Court. Petitioner Joginder Singh had filed a suit against Kuldip Kaur and others with regard to the ancestral property. The said suit Civil Revision No. 1311 of 2009 -2- was dismissed on 4.12.1984. The appeal filed by Joginder Singh was dismissed in default by Additional District Judge, Ferozepur vide order dated 12.1.1987 (Annexure P-1). Now the application under Order 9 Rule 4 CPC has been filed by Satwinder Singh son of Joginder Singh after 19 years of passing of the order Annexure P-1. Learned Additional District Judge in the impugned order has observed that there was nothing on record to conclude that Joginder Singh was insane. The application had been filed by the applicant after 19 years without explaining the said long delay. Keeping in view the fact that the application has been filed after 19 years for setting aside the order, vide which the appeal was dismissed in default, without any justifiable explanation, no ground for interference by this Court is made out. Accordingly, this revision petition is dismissed. (SABINA) JUDGE July 23, 2009 anita
