THE HON’BLE Ms. JUSTICE G. ROHINI CIVIL REVISION PETITION No.6325 OF 2009 Dated: 31.12.2009 Between: John David … petitioner And 1. Y. Adi Murthy and 2 others. … Respondents THE HON’BLE Ms. JUSTICE G. ROHINI CIVIL REVISION PETITION No.6325 OF 2009 ORDER: The petitioner is the defendant No.3 in O.S.No.175 of 2003 on the file of the Court of the Junior Civil Judge, Hindupur. It is a suit for recovery of money based on a mortgage deed. The plaintiff/1st respondent herein gave evidence as P.W.1 and on 12.11.2009 the Court below recorded as under : “This Court is of the opinion that since Mortgage Deed is a Registered one, the counsel for the Defendant can cross examine the attesting witnesses, that there is no necessity for corroboration. Yet the counsel for the defendant did not proceed to cross-examination. This is suit of 2003 for recovery of amount. The counsel for the defendant dragged the mater on and on on one pretext or the other. Considering the nature of the suit and since the counsel for the defendant refused to cross examine the witness, the cross-examination of the witness is treated NIL.” Aggrieved by the same, the present Civil Revision Petition is filed contending that the Court below committed a grave error in treating the cross-examination of P.W.1 as ‘NIL’. The learned counsel for the petitioner vehemently contended that the observation of the Court below that the counsel for the defendant refused to cross-examine the witness was incorrect. The learned counsel submitted that in the facts and circumstances of the case there shall be a direction to the Court below to reopen the evidence of P.W.1. The law is well-settled that the statements recorded by the judges have to be accepted. Even where the proceedings in the Court are alleged to have been wrongly recorded, the proper course is to file a Review petition before the same Court and it is not a matter for interference under Article 227 of the Constitution of India. Accordingly, the Civil Revision Petition is dismissed. No costs. ____________ G. ROHINI, J. Dt. 31.12.2009 gbs
