Petitioner Versus Raj Kumar ...... Respondent Coram: Hon'ble Mr. Justice Ajay Tewari Present: Ms.Sonia G.Singh, Advocate for the petitioner. **** 1. Whether Reporters of local papers may be allowed to see the judgment? 2. To be referred to the Reporters or not? 3. Whether the judgment should be reported in the Digest? Ajay Tewari, J. This petition has been filed against an order closing evidence of the petitioner-plaintiff. Learned counsel has argued that even though it cannot be denied that the case kept pending for the evidence of the petitioner for a long time, yet on most of the dates adjournment was sought by the respondent. Further argued that the case is now fixed for 15.03.2010 for the evidence of the respondent-defendant and that no evidence has been led on behalf of the respondent till date. Further prays that in case one one opportunity is granted to the petitioner he will lead his entire evidence on his own responsibility. Keeping in view the fact that no evidence of the respondent- Civil Revision No. 263 of 2010(O&M) 2 defendant has been led so far, this petition is allowed and the learned trial Court is directed to permit the petitioner to lead his entire evidence on his own responsibility on the date fixed viz. 15.03.2010 whereafter the respondent would be given an adequate opportunity to lead his evidence. Since the main case has been decided, the pending Civil Misc. Applications, if any, stand disposed of. (AJAY TEWARI) JUDGE January 18 , 2010 sunita
