( 24/07/2013) By this petition under Article 227 of the Constitution of India, the petitioners/defendants no.3 to 5 have challenged the 2 W.P. 8802/2013 validity of the impugned order dated 01.03.2013 by which their right to adduce evidence has been closed.

2. The contention of learned counsel for the petitioners/defendants no.3 to 5 is that on 20.02.2013 the first defendant adduced his evidence and on the very next date 01.03.2013, the right to adduce evidence of defendants 3 to 5 has been closed. Thereafter on 08.03.2013 an application under Order 18 Rule 17(a) CPC read with Order 7 Rule 14 (3) CPC was submitted and the case was listed for its consideration on 15.3.2013. Learned counsel submits that on the very first day the right to adduce evidence of defendants 3 to 5 has been closed.

3. According to me, the Court has directed all the defendants to adduce evidence and fixed 10.12.2012, 11.01.2013 and 20.02.2013 but on 20.02.2013 defendants no.3 to 5 were not present. On the contrary, on the prayer made by learned counsel for these defendants time was given. Ultimately, on 01.03.2013 the learned trial Court closed the right to adduce evidence of these defendants.

4. On going through the impugned order I do not find any illegality or perversity in it. However, in the interest of justice, one opportunity is provided to petitioners/defendants no.3 to 5 to adduce their evidence on deposition of cost of Rs. 2000/-. Let the cost be deposited on or before 19.8.2013 and the amount of cost may be withdrawn by the plaintiffs. After deposition of the cost, 3 W.P. 8802/2013 the petitioners/defendants no.3 to 5 may adduce their evidence on 19.8.2013.

5. With the aforesaid observations, this petition is disposed of. The impugned order is set aside. (A.K. Shrivastava) Judge rao 4 W.P. 8802/2013
