R2 TO R7, 10, 13 TO 25, 27 TO 29 BY ADV. MR.RAJU K.MATHEWS THIS CIVIL REVISION PETITION HAVING BEEN FINALLY HEARD ON 01/07/2009, THE COURT ON THE SAME DAY PASSED THE FOLLOWING: Kss S.S. SATHEESACHANDRAN, J. ```````````````````````````````````````````````````` C.R.P. No. 1946 OF 2000 ```````````````````````````````````````````````````` Dated this the 1st day of July, 2009 O R D E R The revision is directed against an order passed by the learned Sub Judge, Kattappana, dismissing an application for amendment of the plaint moved by the petitioner/plaintiff in the suit under Order VI Rule 17 CPC. Having regard to the long pendency of the revision, a report through the Registry was obtained as to whether the suit is still pending on the file of the court. Report received from the court below discloses the suit was dismissed for default as early as in 2000 and the petitioner/ plaintiff had moved an application for restoration of the suit. That petition is kept pending awaiting for the orders in this revision. The learned counsel for the petitioner, relying on Mohanachandran Pillai Vs. Ramachandran [1999 (3) KLT 704], urged that in view of the pendency of the revision, the petitioner is entitled to have a remand of the case for fresh consideration by the court below. I am not impressed by the submission of the counsel. The facts involved in the reported case relied by the counsel would show CRP.1946/00 : 2 : that a suit was dismissed for the sole reason a document produced on which the suit claim rested was found inadmissible. The revision in that case was directed against the order passed holding that the document was inadmissible. In that view of the matter, this court expressed the view that once the finding entered on inadmissibility of the document is found unsustainable the suit has to be restored to file and disposed on merits. That is not the case here. Revision is directed against the dismissal of an amendment application moved by the plaintiff. Suit was later dismissed and a petition moved to restore the suit was also dismissed nearly nine years ago. Still the revision is retained on the file of this court, probably, as an experimental venture to see whether the order passed by the court below could be reversed and then get the suit restored to file. The revision is devoid of any merit, and it is dismissed. Sd/- (S.S. SATHEESACHANDRAN, JUDGE) aks // True Copy // P.A. to Judge CRP.1946/00 : 3 : S.S.
