RESPONDENT (s) CORAM:- HON'BLE MR.JUSTICE RAM CHAND GUPTA Present: Mr. J.P.Sharma, Advocate for the petitioner. ***** RAM CHAND GUPTA, J.(Oral) The present revision petition has been filed under Article 227 of the Constitution of India for setting aside the impugned order dated 13.12.2010, Annexure P1 passed by learned Civil Judge(Junior Division), Rewari vide which the application for taking the specimen signatures and thumb impression of defendant No.1-respondent No.1 for getting the same compared with the disputed signatures on agreement to sell dated 13.06.2001 has been rejected. I have heard learned counsel for the parties and have gone through the whole record including the impugned order passed by learned trial Court. CR No.155 of 2011 The suit is of the year 2007. The suit was filed for specific performance of agreement to sell dated 13.06.2001. Defendant had denied his signatures and thumb impression upon the same even at the time of filing of written statement. The present application for taking the specimen signatures and thumb impression has been filed at much later stage when last opportunity was given to the petitioner-plaintiff to lead his evidence. It has been contended by learned counsel for the petitioner- plaintiff that though there is delay on the part of the petitioner-plaintiff however, the case is fixed for evidence of the plaintiff for 03.02.2011. It is further contended by learned counsel for the petitioner-plaintiff that he would close the entire evidence on 03.02.2011 including evidence of hand writing and finger print expert if permission is granted to petitioner-plaintiff to get the specimen signatures and thumb impression of defendant No.1 compared. In view of these facts, the impugned order dated 13.12.2010 passed by learned trial Court is modified to extent that petitioner-plaintiff is permitted to get the specimen signatures and thumb impression of defendant No.1 before learned trial Court subject to the condition that it will be the responsibility of petitioner-plaintiff to get the same compared and to get the report of hand writing and finger print expert before the next date of hearing and to examine the expert and close his evidence on 03.02.2011. It is made clear that no further opportunity for evidence of plaintiff shall be granted by learned trial Court. It is also made clear that this order is subject to payment of costs of `5,000/- by the present petitioner-plaintiff. Disposed of accordingly. ( RAM CHAND GUPTA ) January 12, 2011.
