S.B.CIVIL WRIT PETITION NO. 8817/2009 (Satpal Singh & Anr. vs. Baldev Singh & Anr.) DATE OF ORDER : 3/2/2010 HON'BLE DR.JUSTICE VINEET KOTHARI Mr.A.K.Rajvanshi, for the petitioners. Mr.Sanjeet Purohit, for the respondent. This writ petition is directed against the order dated 13/7/2009, whereby, the learned trial court has partly allowed the application of defendant Baljinder Kaur under Order 1 Rule 10 CPC in which the said applicant prayed that the earlier power of attorney holder Shri Onkar Singh representing her may not be permitted to represent her as she is living in U.K. & in place of Shri Onkar Singh, new power of attorney holder Shri Satpal Singh may be permitted to represent her interest in the suit. The said suit was filed by the respondent Baldev Singh impleading said Baljinder Kaur through her power of attorney holder and also Onkar Singh in his own capacity as defendant no.2 vide Annex.1. By the impugned order dated 13/7/2009 has held that name of Baljinder Kaur through Onkar Singh cannot be deleted on the said application of Baljinder Kaur. Having heard the learned counsels, this Court is of the view that it is for the person concerned, who comes through the power of attorney to apprise the court as to who will be his/her power of attorney. Once the said Baljinder Kaur has expressed before the Court in the application that instead of Onkar Singh, Mr.Satpal Singh will be her power of attorney and represent her in the suit. It does not lie with the Court to compel the defendant no.1-Baljinder Kaur to represent through earlier power of attorney holder. Therefore, the impugned order of the trial court is erroneous. Consequently, this writ petition is allowed and the impugned order dated 13/7/2009 is set aside. (DR.VINEET KOTHARI), J. item no. 67 baweja/-
