THE HONOURABLE SRI JUSTICE D.S.R.VARMA CIVIL REVISION PETITION No.2650 of 2010 ORAL ORDER: Heard both sides. The docket order, dated 04.06.2010, passed by the I Additional Senior Civil Judge, Vijayawada, in unnumbered interlocutory application of 2010 in O.S.No.347 of 2005 is under challenge in this Civil Revision Petition. By the said order, the application filed seeking to condone the delay in filing the batta was rejected. It appears that by docket order, dated 28.04.2010, because of non-filing of batta by the defendant, further evidence to issue handover summons to the witness was closed and the matter was posted for arguments of the plaintiffs. It is being contended by the learned counsel for the petitioner that subsequently, two more applications were filed seeking to summon the witness and reopen their evidence. It is asserted that batta was paid as ordered by the Court below. But, from the impugned docket order, it appears that the petitioner had filed an application seeking condonation of delay in filing batta and that on 28.04.2008, for the same kind of default, the evidence was closed and the matter was posted for arguments. In such a background, it is incomprehensible as to how the present controversy had arisen. Even otherwise, when the matter is at the stage of arguments, without going into other merits of the case, I feel it expedient to dismiss the Civil Revision Petition. In the result, the Civil Revision Petition is dismissed and I Additional Senior Civil Judge, Vijayawada, is directed to dispose of O.S.No.347 of 2005 as expeditiously as possible. It is needless to say that both sides shall cooperate in this regard. However, there shall be no order as to costs. ______________________ JUSTICE D.S.R.VARMA​ 13th August 2010 dr
