C.R. No.59 of 2010 -1- IN THE HIGH COURT OF PUNJAB AND HARYANA AT CHANDIGARH C.R. No.59 of 2010 Date of Decision: 08.01.2010. Balwinder Kaur .……Petitioner Versus Bachna ……Respondent Coram:- HON’BLE MR. JUSTICE L. N. MITTAL. Present: Mr. Sanjeev Sharma, Advocate for the petitioner. L. N. MITTAL, J (ORAL) Defendant No.2(a) Balwinder Kaur has filed this civil revision petition under Article 227 of the Constitution of India impugning order dated 04.11.2009 (Annexure P-3) passed by learned Additional Civil Judge (Senior Division), Phillaur whereby evidence of the petitioner along with some other defendants has been closed by the Court order. I have heard learned counsel for the petitioner and perused the case file. Learned counsel for the petitioner contends that the petitioner may be granted only one more opportunity to lead her evidence at own responsibility. Perusal of averments made in Paragraphs 7 and 8 of the revision petition reveals that the defendants were granted 4 opportunities in all to lead their evidence. Keeping in view all the circumstances, I intend to accept C.R. No.59 of 2010 -2- the prayer of learned counsel for the petitioner to allow the petitioner one more opportunity to lead her evidence at own responsibility, subject to payment of costs. However, learned counsel for the petitioner states that he is appearing as Legal Aid Counsel, on instructions from Punjab State Legal Services Authority and, therefore, cost amount may be modest. I propose to dispose of the revision petition without issuing notice to respondent-plaintiff so as to avoid further delay in the disposal of the suit and also to save the respondent of expenses which he may have to incur in engaging counsel if notice of revision petition is issued to him. In view of the aforesaid, the instant revision petition is allowed. The trial Court is directed to grant only one more opportunity to the petitioner to lead her entire evidence at her own responsibility, subject to payment of Rs.2000/- as costs precedent. ( L. N. MITTAL ) JUDGE 08.01.2010 A. Kaundal
