The application of the petitioner-plaintiff for leading additional evidence has been dismissed by dint of order dated 9.3.2011, which has been impugned in the instant revision petition. Heard. The plaintiff, after closure of its evidence in a suit for recovery, filed an application for leading additional evidence in the shape of certified copy of statement of defendant No.2, who is proprietor of defendant No.1 dated 22.3.2001 made in a criminal complaint under Section 138 of Negotiable Instruments Act, copy of order passed by the Court of even date and his own statement recorded in the criminal complaint regarding receiving of cheque. It is a matter of record that there was no referenceof filing of any criminal complaint by the plaintiff in the suit and finding the same beyond pleadings, it was rightly held that those documents, pertaining to criminal complaint, are not necessary for the adjudication of the civil suit, wherein the standard of proof is altogether different from the criminal case. There is no illegality or perversity in the findings returned by Civil Revision No. 2508 of 2011 2 the Court below. The instant revision, being devoid of any merit, is thus dismissed in limine.
