THE HON’BLE Ms. JUSTICE G. ROHINI CIVIL REVISION PETITION No. 224 OF 2010 Dated: 17.11.2011 Between : Madala Thimmaiah … Petitioner And M.Ramakrishna and 22 others … Respondents The Court made the following:- THE HON’BLE Ms. JUSTICE G. ROHINI CIVIL REVISION PETITION No. 224 OF 2010 ORDER: The revision petitioner is the 1st defendant in O.S.No.1506 of 2005 on the file of the Court of the VIII Additional Senior Civil Judge, Ranga Reddy District, at L.B.Nagar. The 1st respondent herein is the plaintiff. The suit is filed seeking a declaration that the development agreement dated 25.02.1993 and General Power of Attorney dated 18.03.1993 were not legal and not enforceable against the plaintiff. The 1st defendant was set ex parte on 09.06.2009. I.A.No1306 of 2009 filed by the 1st defendant under Order IX Rule 7 of C.P.C. for setting aside the ex parte order was allowed by the Court below by order dated 31.10.2009 on costs of Rs.500/- and subject to filing of written statement by 17.11.2009. The said order dated 31.10.2009 is assailed in this revision petition by the 1st defendant to the extent of direction by the Court below to file the written statement. It is contended that since I.A.No.1098 of 2009 filed by the 1st defendant for rejection of plaint is pending, the Court below ought not to have impose the condition of filing the written statement. Having heard the learned counsel for both the parties and having perused the material available on record, I do not find any justifiable reason to interfere with the order under Revision. The Court below cannot be held to have committed any error in imposing the condition of filing written statement merely on the ground of pendency of the application filed for rejection of plaint. Therefore, the interference by this Court is not warranted. Accordingly, the Civil Revision Petition is disposed of granting four (4) weeks time from today for filing the written statement in terms of the order under Revision. No costs. ___________ G.
