CR No.1975 of 2009 1 IN THE HIGH COURT OF PUNJAB AND HARYANA AT CHANDIGARH CR No.1975 of 2009 Date of decision: 16.4.2009 Roshan Lal and another ......Petitioners Versus Surjit Singh ......Respondent CORAM:- HON'BLE MR. JUSTICE RAKESH KUMAR GARG * * * Present: Mr. Vivek Rattan, Advocate for the petitioners. * * * Rakesh Kumar Garg, J.(Oral) This is plaintiffs' revision petition challenging the order dated 5.3.2009 passed by the Additional Civil Judge (Sr. Division), Dhuri whereby application filed by the plaintiffs for leading additional evidence has been rejected. Challenging the aforesaid order, learned counsel for the petitioners has vehemently argued that the additional evidence sought to be produced is very much necessary for the just decision of the case and the same could not be produced due to inadvertence and lack of knowledge. I have heard learned counsel for the petitioners. Undisputedly, issues in this case were framed on 10.9.2004 and evidence of the plaintiffs was closed on 15.2.2007. Thereafter, the defendant led his evidence which was closed on 16.11.2007. Now, the case is fixed for rebuttal evidence and arguments. It is also not in dispute that the evidence sought to be produced now by way of additional evidence is in the nature of affirmative. In view of the aforesaid undisputed facts, I find no reason to CR No.1975 of 2009 2 interfere in the impugned order. Moreover, the application filed by the petitioners for producing additional evidence itself shows that the petitioners were not diligent while pursuing their case. Dismissed. April 16, 2009 (RAKESH KUMAR GARG) ps JUDGE
