IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE, ANDHRA PRADESH AT HYDERABAD FRIDAY, THE TWENTY SEVENTH DAY OF AUGUST TWO THOUSAND AND TEN PRESENT THE HON'BLE SRI JUSTICE V.ESWARAIAH CIVIL REVISION PETITION No.3912 of 2010 Between: Kancharla Ramachandra Naidu ..... PETITIONER AND Patari Venkataiah .....RESPONDENT The Court made the following: THE HONOURABLE SRI JUSTICE V.ESWARAIAH CIVIL REVISION PETITION No.3912 of 2010 ORDER: Petitioner is the defendant in the suit O.S.368/2008 filed by the respondent herein on the file of the Additional Senior Civil Judge, Tirupathi for recovery of money based on the promissory note. While so, the petitioner/defendant filed I.A.332/2010 under Or.16 Rule-6 CPC directing the Income Tax Commissioner, Tirupathi or any other responsible officer to produce the original assessment of income tax for the assessment years 2006-07, 2007-08 and 2008-09 of the plaintiff along with balance sheet, income tax statements and other documents. The respondent/plaintiff filed counter in the said I.A. resisting the said application stating that he is regularly paying the income tax and he also produced the copies of income tax returns before the Court below, the originals of which were demanded by the defendant by way of cause of production of documents and therefore, there was no need to summon the income tax authorities for the same. The said application was dismissed by the Court below, against which this civil revision petition is filed. I am of the opinion that all the documents relied on by the petitioner/defendant were already filed by the respondent/plaintiff before the Court below, and if the petitioner/defendant doubts the genuineness or otherwise of the said documents, it is always open for him to get the certified copies and produce the same before the Court below. It is not open for the petitioner/defendant to summon the income tax authorities to produce the originals of the said documents without making any attempt to obtain the certified copies of the same. The Civil Revision Petition is without any merits and the same is accordingly dismissed. No order as to costs. ___________________ V.ESWARAIAH,J Dated: 27.08.2010 Dsr
