IN THE HIGH COURT OF PUNJAB AND HARYANA AT CHANDIGARH CR No. 6141 of 2009 Date of Decision: 24.10.2009 Santosh and others ....Petitioners. Versus Parkash Chadn ...Respondent. CORAM:- HON'BLE MR. JUSTICE AJAY KUMAR MITTAL. PRESENT: Mr. Sanjiv Gupta, Advocate for the petitioners. AJAY KUMAR MITTAL, J. In this revision petition filed under Article 227 of the Constitution of India, challenge is to the order dated 25.9.2009 passed by the trial court whereby the evidence of the plaintiffs has been closed by the order of the Court. Learned counsel for the petitioner submitted that in the interest of justice, one opportunity may be granted to the petitioners to lead their entire evidence and the respondent can be compensated by way of costs. He further submits that the petitioners will conclude their entire evidence at their own risk and responsibility on 12.11.2009, the date already fixed before the trial court. Ordinarily, I would have issued notice of motion to the respondent but as the issuance of notice would prolong the case and entail unnecessary expenses to him, the present petition is being disposed of without resorting to that course. C.R. No. 6141 of 2009 -2- After hearing learned counsel for the petitioners and in the facts and circumstances of the present case, this Court is satisfied that in the interest of justice the petitioners deserve to be granted one opportunity to conclude their entire evidence. Accordingly, the revision petition is disposed of with a direction that the petitioners shall be granted one opportunity to lead their entire evidence on 12.11.2009, the date already fixed before the trial court at their own risk and responsibility and subject to payment of Rs.3,000/- to the respondent as costs. It is, however, made clear that in case the petitioners fail to conclude their entire evidence on the said date or to pay the costs, as stipulated above, this revision petition shall be deemed to have been dismissed.
