THIS PETITION, COMING ON FOR PRELIMINARY HEARING
IN 'B' GROUP, THIS DAY, THE COURT MADE THE FOLLOWING:
ORDER
Learned counsel for the respondents raised objections
regarding maintainability of the writ petition. He submits that
the order under challenge was on the application filed under
Order 9 Rule 9 of CPC and as per Order 43 Rule 1(c) of CPC, it
is an appealable order. Therefore, the writ petition is not
maintainable.
2. On the other hand, learned counsel for the
petitioner submits that he is having merits in the case and
therefore same is to be considered.
3. The application filed by the petitioner which is
produced as per Annexure-C is under Order 9 Rule 9 of CPC
seeking to set aside the order dated 25.09.2002 passed in
Misc.No.16/2001, which in turn filed to set aside the order
passed in O.S.No.261/1992 a suit for partition and separate
possession. Therefore, the application is filed under Order 9
NC: 2024:KHC:6746
Rule 9 of CPC and the order passed there on is being
challenged in this writ petition.
3. As rightly submitted by the learned counsel for the
respondents that Order 43 Rule 1(c) refers to the appealable
order and Sub Rule (3) refers to the order under Order 9 Rule 9
of CPC rejecting the application seeking to set aside the
judgment and decree passed in the suit. There is no
reasonable grounds made out by the petitioner as to how the
writ petition is maintainable when specific provision of law is
there to prefer an appeal challenging the order. Hence, I am of
the opinion that the writ petition is not maintainable.
4. Accordingly, I pass the following:
ORDER
The writ petition is dismissed as the same is not
maintainable.
