CR 231 of 2007. 8.1.2008 Present: Mr. G.R.Palsra, counsel for the petitioner. This is the defendants ‘ revision against the order of the learned Civil Judge (Junior Division), Court No. 3, Mandi dismissing the application of the defendants under Section 9 read with Section 151 of the Code of Civil Procedure for deciding the question of jurisdiction of the Civil Court to try the matter. The facts as noticed by the trial Court are that the defendants had raised an objection that the Civil Court has no jurisdiction to determine the controversy as raised before it. The learned trial Court, after considering the arguments and the law cited in detail, did not accept the submissions made by the defendants and proceeded to dismiss the application holding that the Civil Court had jurisdiction to adjudicate the matter. Apart from the fact that this question could have been urged by the defendants as an issue to be tried alongwith the main suit and evidence led to show as to -2- whether the Court did or did not have jurisdiction to try the matter, merely insisting at the initial stage that the suit should be dismissed, was not the proper course. In any event, having invited adjudication on the point of jurisdiction, it would not be open for me to proceed further on this issue. I am in agreement with the judgment and order passed by the learned trial Court and sitting in revisional jurisdiction, it wouldnot be the function of this Court to reappreciate or reappraise the material on record. I do not find that the learned Court below has acted without jurisdiction or has committed an error of jurisdiction which would call for intervention of this Court, exercising revisional powers. This revision petition is accordingly dismissed. All pending applications shall also stand dismissed. There shall be no order as to costs. January 8, 2008 (PC). (Dev Darshan Sud), J.
