She claims ill-treatment, neglect, threats of killing etc. by the husband and that her efforts to stay with the husband were rendered failure, by him.

He further claims that all his attempt to bring her back failed. He refused to pay separate maintenance. He further pleaded that the wife undertook the Tailoring Job and earned Rs. 500/- p.m. and that her demand for Rs. 1500 was unjustified.2.

Reported in: IV(2006)BC34; 2005(5)BomCR213

S.U. Kamdar, J.1. The present chamber summons is a classic example of how the legitimate claim of a creditor can be defeated by technical and legal wrangles raised by the debtors. The efforts do not end with the passing of the decree but continue even in execution of the decree thereof. 2. In the present case execution of the decree is sought to be obstructed by raising the issue of jurisdiction of this court by relying upon the provisions of sub-section (4) of section 39 of Civil Procedure Code as amended by amending Act of 2002. 3. This chamber summons has been taken out under order 21 rule 89, rule 90 and under section 151 of the CPC.

Laxman Vithoba Bhorsat and ors. Vs. Rajaram Vithoba Bhorsat and ors.

Court: Mumbai

Decided on: Apr-20-2005

Reported in: 2005(6)BomCR418; 2005(3)MhLj969

D.K. Deshmukh, J.1. By this petition the petitioner challenges the order passed by the trial Court allowing the amendment in the written statement. Suit admittedly is a suit for partition. Amendment is sought by the defendant in the written statement. Amendment in the written statement, which results in including other properties than the one in relation to which partition is sought by the plaintiff does not really amount to counter-claim. Therefore, the trial Court and the defendant have committed an error in terming it as a counter-claim. It really is an application for amendment in the written statement, so that other properties which according to the defendant are also joint family properties can be subjected to partition. In a suit filed for a decree for partition the defendant who has share in the joint properties is also in the position of the plaintiff, therefore a defendant can claim in his written statement that apart from the properties which are mentioned in the plaint ther...
