IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE OF ANDHRA PRADESH :: AT HYDERABAD PRESENT THE HON’BLE SRI JUSTICE VILAS V.AFZULPURKAR C.R.P. NO. 1217 OF 2007 Dated 7th December, 2010 Between : Duvvi Suramma Petitioner And Dr.A.V.Siva Prasad and another Respondents ORDER: Rejection of the plaintiffs’ application for amendment of plaint in I.A. No. 554 of 2006 in O.S. No. 2767 of 2003 on the file of the learned II Addl. Junior Civil Judge, Visakhapatnam dated 16.10.2006 holding that the petitioner is not entitled to seek amendment particularly in view of the fact that the trial has already commenced and the evidence of the plaintiff was already over, is assailed in this revision. The said application moved by the plaintiffs at the stage of the defendants’ evidence was, therefore, held to be highly belated and was rejected accordingly. Questioning that order, this revision petition is filed. Though this court while issuing notice on admission on 23.3.2007 had granted interim stay, the same was vacated by further reasoned order dated 13.8.2007 and thereafter the revision petition was admitted. Since the suit is of 2003 and was already at the stage of evidence of the defendants, in all probability, the suit must have been disposed of by now. Even otherwise, present application was found to be highly belated. As such the said application was rightly rejected by the trial court. I do not find any reason to interfere with the said order. The Civil Revision Petition is accordingly dismissed. No costs. _______________________ Justice Vilas V. Afzulpurkar December 7, 2010 MAS
