IN THE HIGH COURT OF PUNJAB AND HARYANA AT CHANDIGARH C.R No.4644 of 2011 Date of Decision:- 3.8.2011 M/s Anand Sweets & Rastaurant and another ....Petitioners vs. Smt. Gurkanwal Virk ....Respondent *** CORAM:- HON'BLE MR.JUSTICE ARVIND KUMAR *** Present:- Mr. Anuj Balian, Advocate, for the petitioner. *** ARVIND KUMAR, J. The present petitioners are the defendants in the suit for ejectment, titled Smt. Gurkanwal Virk v. M/s Anand Sweets and Restaurant. They are aggrieved with order dated 28.3.2011 passed by the Civil Judge(Jr. Division), Panchkula, by dint of which their evidence has been closed by order of the Court. Hence, this revision. Heard. Counsel for the petitioner-defendants at the outset withdraws paras 7 and 8 of the petition wherein the defendants-petitioners have levelled certain allegations against their counsel appearing on their behalf before the Court below. The only argument is that though the defendants had been appearing but their counsel had never suggested to lead evidence and as such, for the said lapse they should not suffer. Counsel thus seeks only one opportunity to lead entire evidence by the defendants, for which they are ready to compensate the opposite party. Rules and procedure are hand-maid of justice and are meant to enhance it and not to scuttle the same. Accordingly, the present revision is allowed, impugned order is set aside and the trial Court is directed to afford one effective opportunity to the petitioner-defendants to lead their entire evidence; however, subject to payment of costs of Rs.10,000/- to be paid by them to the opposite side before the trial Court. C.R No.4644 of 2011 -2- Keeping in view the circumstances mentioned above, this revision is being disposed of without issuing any notice to the opposite party. If the respondent is summoned to contest this litigation, she will have to incur huge expenses to defend this case. However, liberty is granted to the respondent that if she feels dissatisfied with this order, she may move an application to recall the same. August 03, 2011 ( ARVIND KUMAR) JS JUDGE
