MAHESH GROVER, J.
This revision petition is directed against the order dated
14.2.2003 by which the evidence of the petitioner was closed.
There is no infirmity in the impugned order wherein it was
noticed that sufficient opportunities were given to the petitioner to
adduce his evidence, but since the same was not done, his evidence
was directed to be closed by way of the impugned order.
Considering the facts in their entirety and also noticing
the fact that the petition is pending since 2003, I deem it appropriate
to dispose of the present petition. Accordingly, the petition is
accepted and the impugned order is set aside subject to payment of
Rs.5,000/- as costs. The trial court is directed to afford one effective
opportunity to the petitioner to conclude his evidence. It is made clear
C.R.No.2020 of 2003 -2-
that no further opportunity shall be granted to the petitioner.
18.12.2008 (MAHESH GROVER)
