IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE AT PATNA CWJC No.14074 of 2009 Shiv Shankar Prasad, S/o Dwarika Sah, Vill.- Ibrahimpur, P.S. Piro, Distt.- Bhojpur at Arah Versus The State of Bihar through the Registrar Civil Court Bhojpur At Arah ----------- 02 07.11.2009 It is apparent that a judgment and decree was passed in the year 1962 by the then Additional Subordinate Judge, Arah in relation to direction of payment of Court fee. The matter thereafter came in civil revision before this Court. This Court disposed of the civil revision amending the decree in the manner as apparent from the order in question. It is 42 years thereafter that certified copy of the alleged decree, as amended pursuant to direction of this Court in civil revision, certified copy is being demanded. Civil court has repeatedly informed the petitioner that the records are not available. Petitioner had taken no other steps. It is obvious that when the civil revision was taken up by this Court in the year 1967 the records were in this Court. The original judgment and decree must have been a part of the civil revision application before this Court. The records must then have been sent back to the Trial Court for correction as directed in the civil revision. It could be that they were not sent to the appropriate Court and is lying anywhere in the Record Room of the Registry of the Civil Court or may be even in the Registry of the High Court. In view of these facts, Petitioner should make enquiries, try and seek certified copy - 2 - accordingly. The authorities of the High Court and Civil Court would cooperate in the matter to discover the said judgment and decree. With this observation, the writ petition stands disposed of.
