THE HON’BLE SRI JUSTICE K.C.BHANU CIVIL REVISION PETITION NO.6129 OF 2009 DATED:06-04- 2010. Between 1.Sumeet Pal Singh and another … Petitioners And 1.T.V.N.Ravi Kumar and another …Respondents THE HON’BLE SRI JUSTICE K.C.BHANU CIVIL REVISION PETITION NO.6129 OF 2009 ORDER: This revision is filed under Article 227 of the Constitution of India challenging the order, dated 14-10-2009, in I.A.No.327 of 2009 in O.S.No.912 of 2008, on the file of the IV Senior Civil Judge, City Civil Court, Hyderabad, whereunder and whereby the petition filed to permit the plaintiff to file rejoinder to the written statement was allowed. 2. The apprehension of the revision petitioner is that allowing the petition to file rejoinder would take away the entire defence of the defendants in the suit. 3. There cannot be any dispute that under Order VIII Rule 9 CPC, no pleading subsequent to the written statement of the defendant other than by the way of defence to a set off or counter claim shall be presented except by the leave of the Court and upon such terms as the Court thinks fit. Certain aspects have been pleaded in the written statement which necessitated the plaintiff to clarify or deny those aspects. Therefore, by allowing the petition to receive the rejoinder, it will not take away the defence of the defendants. They can as well adduce their evidence in terms of the plea in the written statement. Therefore, making it clear that no defence of the defendants would take away by filing rejoinder, the defendants are at liberty to adduce their evidence. However, the trial Court is directed to dispose of the suit as expeditiously as possible. 4. Accordingly, the Civil Revision Petition is disposed of. No order as to costs. -------------------- K.C.BHANU, J DATED:06-04- 2010 Note: Issue CC in 3 days Hsd
