JUSTICE A.N.JINDAL Present: Mr.H.S.Dhandi, Advocate, for the petitioner. ***** A.N.JINDAL, J(ORAL): This petition, preferred by the petitioner-defendant No.4 (herein referred as 'the petitioner') is directed against the orders dated 10.11.2008 and 11.08.2009, passed by Civil Judge (Senior Division), Nawanshahr, whereby evidence of defendants No.3 and 4 has been closed by order and application of defendant No.3 for leading evidence has also been dismissed. It has been urged by the petitioner that there were four defendants in the case and the petitioner was in the wrong impression that the case was fixed for evidence of defendants No.1 and 2 so that he could not produce the evidence on the date fixed, as such, his evidence was closed by order. It has come to the notice of the Court that defendants No.1 and 2 have also not closed their evidence. The petitioner has undertaken to produce the entire evidence within a short time. Heard. The posting of the case for rebuttal evidence & Arguments, without closing the evidence of defendants No.1 and 2 was also against the law. In these circumstances, this petition is accepted and the petitioner is directed to conclude their evidence within four months from the date fixed before the trial Court, subject to payment of Rs.3,000/- as costs. This petition is disposed of without issuing notice to the respondent(s) with a view to impart complete justice to the parties and to save huge expenses which may be incurred by the respondent(s) as also in order to avoid unnecessary delay in adjudication of the matter. If still dissatisfied, the respondent(s) may move this Court for recalling this order. (A.N.Jindal) 16.09.2009 Judge mamta-II
