IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE, ANDHRA PRADESH AT HYDERABAD MONDAY, THE SIXTEENTH DAY OF NOVEMBER TWO THOUSAND AND TEN PRESENT THE HON'BLE SRI JUSTICE VILAS V. AFZULPURKAR CIVIL REVISION PETITION No.3751 OF 2009 BETWEEN Vadapalli Gopi and another. …PETITIONERS AND Palla Apparao. …RESPONDENT Counsel for the petitioner: MR. N. RANGA REDDY Counsel for the Respondent: --NONE APPEARED-- The Court made the following: - ORDER: This revision is by the defendant whose application for amendment of written statement was disallowed. 2. The suit for recovery of money based on promissory note was being defended by the petitioner before the trial Court. He had earlier filed a written statement raising several pleas but now wanted to seek amendment that the suit promissory note contains material alterations. This plea being highly belated and being not supported by sufficient cause was disallowed by the Court below. Even at the time of passing the impugned order in July 2009, the suit itself was at the stage of defendant’s evidence and by now the suit must have been disposed of. Even otherwise, the written statement, which was already filed, covered several pleas and the proposed plea now sought to be raised was conspicuously absent. No sufficient cause is shown by the petitioner, hence the Court below rightly declined to grant the relief. I see no reasons to interfere with the order impugned. The civil revision petition is accordingly dismissed. There shall be no order as to costs. _____________________ VILAS V. AFZULPURKAR, J November 16, 2010 DSK
