IN THE HIGH COURT OF PUNJAB AND HARYANA AT CHANDIGARH C.R.No.5979 of 2010 (O&M) Date of Decision : 20.9.2010 Kartar Singh ....Petitioner Versus Malkit Singh and others ...Respondents CORAM : HON'BLE MR.JUSTICE MAHESH GROVER .... Present : Mr.R.S.Bains, Advocate for the petitioner. Mr.S.K.Arora, Advocate for the caveator/respondent No.1. ..... MAHESH GROVER, J. The petitioner is aggrieved by the order dated 11.5.2010 by which his application for being impleaded as a party has been declined. He claims to be a bona fide purchaser of the suit property which is subject-matter of the civil suit initiated by respondent No.1 seeking specific performance of the agreement to sell regarding this very property in his favour. The suit property was concededly purchased by the petitioner subsequent to the filing of the present suit and, therefore, the sale would be hit by the principle of lis pendens if other requirements are fulfilled by the said respondent. Respondent No.1, who is plaintiff in the suit, is also dominus litus and he cannot be compelled to implead a person to whom he does not wish. There is C.R.No.5979 of 2010 (O&M) -2- thus no legal infirmity in the impugned order and the revision petition being without any merit is dismissed. It is for the parties to independently establish their cause of action at an appropriate stage. 20.9.2010 (MAHESH GROVER) JUDGE dss
