THE HON'BLE SRI JUSTICE B.PRAKASH RAO CIVIL REVISION PETITION NO.345 OF 2010 ORDER: The petitioner-defendant filed this revision under Article 227 of the Constitution of India, inter alia, seeking to assail the order dated 18.01.2010 in C.F.R.No.299 of 2010 in an unnumbered I.A. of 2010 in O.S.No.24 of 2008 on the file of the I Additional District Judge, Guntur, in rejecting the application filed under Order XVII Rules 1, 2 and Section 151 of the Code of Civil Procedure, 1908, seeking to grant time till 25.01.2010 for adducing further evidence of the petitioner- defendant. Whether the reason given in the affidavit filed in support of the application is valid or not, the Court below rejected the same on the ground that sufficient opportunity has already been given. Further, the Court below made note of the attitude of the petitioner that he never attends the Court. Hence, the revision. On a consideration of the submissions made and on perusal of the material available on record, it is to be seen that the result of either the interlocutory application or the Revision itself would no way have any effect on the said application, since the said application is only for adjournment and the same was dismissed on 18.01.2010. This Court, while ordering notice before admission on 05.02.2010, granted interim stay of all further proceedings in O.S.No.24 of 2008 and since seven {7} months, the said stay is still in subsistence. Therefore, automatically, the petitioner got sufficient time as well as longer adjournment more than what he could have obtained if the Court below allowed the said application and granted reasonable time. In view of the same, the purpose for which the application has been filed has already been served and there is no need, either to go into the merits of the present revision or to grant any further time. Hence, I do not find any merits in the revision and in fact, such an approach should be discouraged. Accordingly, the Civil Revision Petition is disposed of and the interim stay granted by this Court on 05.02.2010 stands vacated. The Court below shall expedite the hearing of the suit and dispose of the same, as expeditiously as possible, not later than six {6} months from the date of receipt of a copy of this order. No costs. _________________ (B.PRAKASH RAO, J) 30th September 2010 RRB
