SBCWP No.9973/2008 Vivek Vashistha Vs. Smt. Madhu Chawat & Ors. 1 S.B. Civil Writ Petition No.9973/2008 Vivek Vashistha Vs. Smt. Madhu Chawat & Ors. DATE OF ORDER : - 16.3.2009 HON'BLE MR. PRAKASH TATIA, J. Mr.KR Saran, for the petitioner. <><><> Heard learned counsel for the petitioner. The written statement was taken on record by the order of the trial court dated 25th Sept., 2008, which has been challenged by preferring the writ petition on 11th Dec., 2008, i.e., after delay of more than 2 months and after going through the reasons given by the court below in the impugned order, I do not find any reason to entertain the writ petition to challenge such an order. It has already been held by the Hon'ble Apex Court that the provisions making the limitation for filing the written statement is not mandatory and on showing sufficient cause, the court can take on record the written statement even after expiry of limitation prescribed for filing the written statement. Therefore, the order which has been passed after SBCWP No.9973/2008 Vivek Vashistha Vs. Smt. Madhu Chawat & Ors. 2 appreciating the facts by the trial court in the facts of the case does not require interference. Hence, there is no merit in this writ petition and the same is hereby dismissed. (PRAKASH TATIA), J. c.p.goyal/-
