...RESPONDENTS
THIS WRIT PETITION FILED UNDER ARTICLES 227 OF THE
CONSTITUTION OF INDIA PRAYING TO ISSUE A WRIT OF
CERTIORARI QUASHING THE IMPUGNED ORDER DATED
19.08.2021 PASSED IN O.S. NO. 166/2014 BY THE PRINCIPAL
SENIOR CIVIL JUDGE AT KALABURAGI REJECTING THE I.A. NO.
33 FILED BY THE PETITIONER U/SEC. 43 OF EVIDENCE ACT AS
PER THE ANNEXURE-E; AND ETC.
THIS PETITION IS COMING FOR ORDERS, THIS DAY, THE
COURT MADE THE FOLLOWING:-
4
ORDER
Petitioner has assailed the Order dated 19th August, 2021
passed on IA.XXXIII in OS No.166 of 2014 by the Principal
Senior Civil Judge at Kalaburagi dismissing the application.
2. For the sake of convenience, the parties in this petition
are referred to with their status and rank before the trial Court.
3. Petitioner is the plaintiff in OS No.166 of 2014 before
the trial Court. The suit is filed seeking relief of declaration of
title and injunction. The plaintiff has filed IA No.XXXIII under
Section 43 of Evidence Act, requesting the Court to send Exhibit
P23, plaint in OS No.256 of 1994, plaint in OS No.37 of 1971
and vakalat filed by one Ahmed Hussain in OS No.288 of 1994
and OS No.37 of 1997 to compare the signature of late Syed
Ahmed Hussain on Exhibit P73. The trial Court dismissed the
said application and being aggrieved by the same, the petitioner
has presented this writ petition.
4. Sri Gopalakrishna B. Yadav, learned Counsel appearing
for the petitioner contended that the trial Court ought to have
referred the signature of late Syed Ahmed Hussain for expert
opinion to adjudicate the suit in the right perspective. He further
contended that the opinion of the handwriting expert is required
to discern the truth.
5. In the light of the submission made by the learned
counsel for the petitioner, I have carefully considered the
impugned order. Perusal of the same would indicate that the
trial Court, after summoning the entire file in OS No.256 of
1994, 37 of 1971 and vakalat filed in those suits by late Syed
Ahmed Hussain, are relevant in OS No.166 of 2014. The trial
Court, considering the fact that Exhibit P73 is only an agreement
though it is stated as Sale Deed, and same is an unregistered
document and therefore, has come to the conclusion that the
opinion of the handwriting expert is not required to adjudicate
the suit on merits. The finding recorded by the trial Court at
paragraphs 8 and 9 of the impugned judgment does not warrant
interference in this writ petition. It is also well established
principle that the jurisdiction of this Court to interfere with the
order impugned under Article 227 of the Constitution of India is
limited, unless the impugned order suffers from infirmity. On
perusal of the finding recorded by the trial Court, I am of the
view the trial Court is justified in rejecting IA.XXXIII.
In the result, petition stands dismissed.
