IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE, ANDHRA PRADESH AT HYDERABAD PRESENT THE HON'BLE SRI JUSTICE K.C.BHANU CIVIL REVISION PETITION No.1863 OF 2006 Date:18-08-2011 Between:- M. Mansoor Ali Baig … Petitioner And N. Venugopal Reddy … Respondent HONOURABLE SRI JUSTICE K.C. BHANU CIVIL REVISION PETITION No.1863 OF 2011 ORDER: This revision is directed against the order, dated 22-03-2011, in I.A. No.773 of 2010 in O.S. No.115 of 2009 passed by the Principal Junior Civil Judge, Dhone, whereunder and whereby the petition filed under Section 45 of the Indian Evidence Act, requesting to send the signatures in Ex.A-1, Written Statement, Vakalat and Ex.A-5 two served postal acknowledgment cards to hand-writing export for comparison whether it is signed with ink pen or ball point pen, was dismissed on the ground that earlier order, dated 24-07-2010, passed in I.A. No.316 of 2010 for the self same relief, has become final. 2. Heard both sides. 3. The petitioner cannot be permitted to file petition after petition for the self same relief. Earlier, the petition filed by the petitioner for sending the disputed signatures on the documents along with the admitted signatures has been dismissed and that order has become final. The doctrine of res judicata is based on the need and necessity of giving finality to judicial orders. There is no reason why the doctrine should not be made applicable to orders at different stages of the same trial. If the principle is not made applicable to interlocutory orders, the very purpose of the doctrine would be defeated. Filing of the present application is nothing but protracting the proceedings. Therefore, there are no grounds in the revision. 4. Hence, the Civil Revision Petition is dismissed. There shall be no order as to costs. ____________ K.C. BHANU, J August 18, 2011. KTL
