C.R No. 3607 of 2010 (O&M) ::1:: IN THE HIGH COURT OF PUNJAB AND HARYANA AT CHANDIGARH C.R No. 3607 of 2010 (O&M) Date of decision : May 28, 2010 Garish Kumar and another, ...... Petitioner (s) v. Yog Raj and another, ...... Respondent(s) *** CORAM : HON'BLE MR.JUSTICE AJAY TEWARI *** Present : Mr. Arun Bakshi, Advocate for the petitioners. *** 1. Whether Reporters of Local Newspapers may be allowed to see the judgment ? 2. To be referred to the Reporters or not ? 3. Whether the judgment should be reported in the Digest ? *** AJAY TEWARI, J (Oral) This petition has been filed against the order dated 24.4.2010 closing the evidence of the plaintiff/petitioners. Counsel for the petitioners states that under the orders of the Court, a building expert was authorized to inspect the building and to report on its condition but he was not examined. He further argues that even though it cannot be disputed that adequate opportunities were granted to the petitioners yet considering the fact that it is just the expert who had not been examined and the fact that no evidence was led by the respondents, it would be in the interest of justice if the petitioners should be allowed one C.R No. 3607 of 2010 (O&M) ::2:: more opportunity to examine the said expert and that any prejudice which may be caused to the respondents can well be compensated by costs. In my opinion, on a conspectus of all the facts mentioned above, it would be in the larger interest of justice, if the plaintiff/petitioners are allowed one opportunity at their responsibility to examine the building expert on the date fixed viz 9.6.2010 before evidence is led by the respondents. Ordered accordingly. This shall, however, be subject to payment of costs of Rs.5,000/- in favour of the respondents. This petition is allowed in the above terms. Copy of this order be given dasti to counsel for the petitioners on payment of usual charges. As the main petition has since been allowed, all the pending civil miscellaneous applications, if any, also stand disposed of. ( AJAY TEWARI ) May 28, 2010. JUDGE `kk'
