THE HON'BLE SRI JUSTICE NOOTY RAMAMOHANA RAO CIVIL REVISON PETITION No : 195 of 2011 O R D E R: This Civil Revision Petition is preferred by the plaintiff, calling in question the orders passed on 02.12.2010 by the learned Principal Junior Civil Judge at Sangareddy in I.A. No.1750 of 2010 in O.S.No.387 of 2006 This I.A.No.1750 of 2010 has been preferred under Order 8 Rule 9 read with Section 151 C.P.C. seeking permission and leave of the Court to bring on record a rejoinder to the written statement filed by the defendants in the suit. It is apt to notice that the suit is instituted in the year 2006 and the defendants in the suit have filed their written statement as early as on 07th September 2006. The issues for trial were settled by the Court on 11.06.2008. The plaintiff was examined as P.W.1 and he has also produced another witness, who was examined as P.W.2, and the defendants have also examined two other witnesses on their side and the matter was posted for arguments on 24.06.2010, at which stage the present I.A. has been moved. If the rejoinder to the written statement is taken on record, now it will be re-opening the pleadings that might require even additional issue to be framed and the parties will have to go into question of leading evidence again all over. That is not the purpose for which a rejoinder can be brought on record. Further, there is no valid explanation as to why the plaintiff kept quite from September, 2006 for seeking leave of the Court to bring on record the rejoinder. When the trial is almost complete and the matter is posted for arguments, question of entertaining the rejoinder would not arise. Therefore, the Court below has rightly dismissed the I.A. exercising the jurisdiction properly and correctly and I do not find any irregularity or irrationality in the discretion exercised by the Court. Hence, the Civil Revision Petition is dismissed at the admission stage. No costs. --------------------------------- Nooty Ramamohana Rao, J 20th January 2011 bud
