Hon'ble Shri Justice Narendra Kumar Vyas Judgment on Board
29.07.2025
1. By way of instant second appeal, the appellant has challenged
the judgment and decree dated 06.12.2016 passed by
Additional District Judge, Dhamtari in Civil Appeal No.37-A/2014.

first appeal and affirmed the judgment and decree dated
23.09.2014 passed by the trial Court i.e. First Civil Judge, Class-
I, Dhamtari, in Civil Suit No.121-A/2013.
2. The instant second appeal was admitted for hearing by order
dated 21.06.2019 on the following substantial question of law:-
"Whether finding of the Court below refusing to take the additional documentary evidence like two registered deeds of sales, both dated 28.01.1980, executed in favour of Hema Bai by rejecting the application filed under Order 41 Rule 27 of the Code of Civil Procedure, 1908 and thereby granting the decree for partition in respect of the property in question bearing Khasra Nos.770/1 & 770/2 described in plaint Schedule (c), is perverse?"
3. However, during the pendency of the second appeal, as per the
special mediation drive initiated by the Hon'ble Supreme Court
for settling the dispute through mediation the matter was placed
before the mediation centre of this Court. The parties appeared
before the mediation centre of this Court and settled their dispute
on the following terms :-
