IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE, ANDHRA PRADESH AT HYDERABAD (Special Original Jurisdiction) THURSDAY, THE FIRST DAY OF APRIL TWO THOUSAND AND TEN PRESENT HON'BLE SRI JUSTICE A.GOPAL REDDY CIVIL REVISION PETITION No. 1235 of 2010 Between: Ch.Appalanarasamma and another … Petitioners And Yelamarthi Surya Kumari and another … Respondents This Court made the following: HON’BLE SRI JUSTICE A.GOPAL REDDY CIVIL REVISION PETITION No.1235 of 2010 ORDER:- This revision by defendant Nos.1 and 3 in the suit is filed under Article 227 of the Constitution of India, questioning the correctness of the order passed by Senior Civil Judge, Kothapet, East Godavari District in I.A.No.760 of 2009 in O.S.No.77 of 2008, dated 02.02.2010 whereby the application filed by the petitioners for sending Ex.A1 promissory note to Government handwriting expert i.e., Forensic Science Laboratory, Hyderabad for comparison of signatures of deceased Chanamalla Satyanarayana, has been dismissed. The respondent No.1/plaintiff filed the suit for recovery of money basing on a promissory note said to have been executed by late Chanamalla Satyanarayana, husband of defendant No.1 and father of defendant Nos.2 and 3/petitioners and 2nd respondent herein, on 10.04.2006. After adducing the oral evidence by both the parties, the above application came to be filed for sending the suit promissory note for comparison of the signatures of executant of the promissory note with the signatures on the photo copies of resolutions of Mula Upparagudem Gram Panchayat, dated 26.10.1995; the resolutions said to have been signed by Ch.Satyanarayana as a surpanch of the said village; apart from the voucher for delivery of 2nd cylinder signed by the executant of the promissory note on 06.03.1998; and another document maintained by Gexkay Hatcheries Private Limited, dated 28.07.2006, which is alleged to have been contained the signature of the executant of the promissory note. The trial court rightly dismissed the said application since the photocopies of the resolutions of the Gram Panchayat are of the year 1995 and the alleged signature contained on the voucher for delivery of second cylinder, was not a public document. Further, the signature where Ch.Satyanarayana signed with Gexkay Hatcheries Private Limited is a private document and not maintained by the public officer under any statute. As seen from the record, no admitted signature of Ch.Satyanarayana has been filed for sending the said document before tendering evidence by the defendants and only after both the parties have adduced their evidence, the above application appears to be filed to procrastinate the litigation. The discretion exercised by the trial Court does not suffer from any illegality warranting interference by this Court. Accordingly, the civil revision petition is dismissed. No costs. __________________ A.GOPAL REDDY, J 01st April 2010 lmv
