ORAL JUDGMENT
1. Heard.
2. Rule. Rule returnable forthwith. With
the consent of the parties, the petition is taken
up for final hearing.
3. The Respondent Nos.1 to 4 are only
contesting Respondents. Mr.M.M.Patil (Beedkar),
learned counsel appears for them. The present
Respondent Nos.1 to 4 have filed suit for
partition and separate possession. The present
petitioner is the original defendant No.1. The
defendant No.1 during the pendency of the suit
filed an application for issuing witness summons
to the Sub-Registrar, Parbhani, to remain present
along with index Register, so as to prove the
sale deed bearing No.1483/96. According to the
learned counsel for the petitioner, initially the
application was allowed. The witness summons was
issued to the Sub-Registrar but he did not bring
any document with him. As such application
Exh.101 was given. The same is rejected on the
ground that the application is vague and the
details of documents are not given. The learned
counsel submits that vide earlier application
bearing Exh.96 details of documents to be proved
was already stated.
4. Mr.Patil, learned counsel for the
plaintiffs submits that petitioner is trying to
protract the matter. The application Exh.101 was
vague and did not contain the details of the
document required to be proved by the Sub-
Registrar.
5. I have considered the submissions.
Perusal of application Exh.101, it is manifest
that the said application is bereft of any
details. It appears that subsequently one more
application Exh.104 was given. The same was also
vague. It refers to the sale deed bearing
No.1483/98 but the said application further
states that along with some other relevant
documents, no details of the other relevant
documents were given.
6.
Even vide application Exh.96, which is
allowed, the witness summons to the Sub-Registrar
was issued to remain present along with index
Register relating to the registered sale deed
bearing No.1483/96. The parties are required to
be given opportunity to prove the document. It
is stated that the document is on record and the
same is to be proved by calling Sub-Registrar and
the index Register.
7. In light of the above, I pass the
following order :
a) The impugned order is quashed and set
aside. The applications Exhs.101 and 104 are
allowed to the extent that witness summons be
issued to the Sub-Registrar, Parbhani to remain
present along with index regarding sale deed
bearing serial No.1483/96. To that extent the
applications are allowed.
b) Considering the fact that the suit is
of 2007 and the same was stayed for four years,
so also the fact that the evidence of plaintiff
is concluded and the evidence of defendant is in
progress, the trial Court shall endeavour to
dispose of the suit expeditiously, preferably
within eight (8) months.
c) Rule made absolute in above terms. No
costs.
