                                                                                3727, 3728 & 3729 of 2009

                               2.       In all the CRPs, the petitioner is the 18th defendant in the suit

                     filed by the 19th respondent herein for permanent injunction, in respect of

                     the suit property. The suit was filed in the year 2000 and thereafter both

                     sides evidences closed. When the suit was posted for judgment after

                     conclusion of arguments, the petitioner being the 18th defendant in the suit

                     filed petition to re-open and re-call D.W.1 and D.W.2.



                               3.       On perusal of records it revealed that the petitioner already

                     filed petitions to re-open and re-call D.W.1. The said petitions were allowed

                     and through D.W.1, she marked Ex.D.37, even in the year 2009 itself. Again

                     she filed petitions to re-open and re-call D.W.1 and D.W.2 to mark the

                     voters ID, Ration card and also letters issued by the Tashildar.



                                   4.   It is seen from the records, the learned counsel, who entered

                     appearance on behalf of the petitioner in all cases, reported that the entire

                     bundle have already been handed over to the petitioner and he had given

                     change of vakalath. Today, Mr.Ramesh Ramachandran, learned counsel

                     represented that he yet to receive instructions from the petitioner and he

                                                                          3727, 3728 & 3729 of 2009

                     seeks time to file vakalath. The suit is of the year 2000 and the Civil

                     Revision Petitions are filed in the year 2009. These Civil Revision Petitions

                     are pending for the past 12 years and the petitioner did not take any steps to

                     engage new counsel to appear on behalf of her. It is nothing but delaying

                     tactics and it cannot be permitted.



                                   5.   That apart, when the suit was posted for judgment after

                     conclusion of arguments, the present petitions have been filed by the

                     petitioner herein. The documents which are sought to be marked by the

                     petitioner were issued in the year 2006. Therefore, the trial Court rightly

                     dismissed the petitions. This Court finds no illegality or infirmity in the

                     orders passed by the Court below. Considering the facts and circumstances,

                     the trial Court viz., the learned VI Assistant City Civil Judge, Chennai, is

                     directed to dispose the suit within a period of six weeks from the date of

                     receipt of copy of this Order.
