(Oral) Plaintiff has filed this revision petition under Article 227 of the Constitution of India challenging order dated 5.9.2006 (Annexure P/3) passed by learned Additional Civil Judge (Senior Division), Fatehgarh Sahib, whereby application filed by the plaintiff under Order 39 Rule 2(A) of the Code of Civil Procedure (in short, CPC) stands dismissed. I have heard learned counsel for the parties and perused the case file. The instant revision petition is liable to be dismissed on two counts. Firstly, the instant revision petition was filed more than 20 months after the passing of the impugned order and there is no explanation for this Civil Revision No. 3159 of 2008 -2- long delay of 20 months in filing the revision petition. Consequently, the revision petition is barred by delay and laches. Secondly, the impugned order is appealable under Order 43 Rule 1(r) CPC. For this reason as well, the instant revision petition cannot be entertained. In view of the aforesaid, the instant revision petition is dismissed. ( L.N. Mittal ) January 06, 2010 Judge 'dalbir'
