Sunil Kumar vs Santhakumari on 30 July, 2010<\/div>\n
       \n\n  \n\n  \n\n \n \n  IN THE HIGH COURT OF KERALA AT ERNAKULAM\n\nCRP.No. 391 of 2010()\n\n\n1. SUNIL KUMAR, S\/O.GOPALAKRISHNAN NAIR,\n                      ...

Justice THOMAS P.JOSEPH\n\n Dated :30\/07\/2010\n\n O R D E R\n                   THOMAS P JOSEPH, J.\n\n                  ----------------------------------------\n\n                        C.R.P.No.391of 2010\n\n                  ---------------------------------------\n\n                 Dated this 30th day of July, 2010\n\n                                ORDER\n<\/pre>\n
      This revision is against a divergent finding and verdict<\/p>\n
passed by the learned Additional District Judge, North Paravur in<\/p>\n
A.S.No.137 of 2008.        That appeal arose from judgment and<\/p>\n
decree in O.S.No.305 of 2007 of the court of learned Munsiff,<\/p>\n
North Paravur. That is a suit filed by petitioner for recovery of<\/p>\n
money from respondent on the strength of an alleged borrowal<\/p>\n
and execution of demand promissory note on 16-10-2006.<\/p>\n
Petitioner claimed that respondent borrowed Rs.20,000\/- from<\/p>\n
him on 16-10-2006 agreeing to repay the same on demand with<\/p>\n
interest @ 12% per annum and executed Ext.A1, demand<\/p>\n
promissory note.      On respondent failing to pay that amount<\/p>\n
petitioner instituted the suit. Respondent contended that she had<\/p>\n
no such transaction with petitioner, nor had executed Ext.A1,<\/p>\n
demand promissory note. Petitioner is a real estate broker to<\/p>\n
whom she had entrusted responsibility to find out a suitable<\/p>\n
purchaser for her property . She handed over a photocopy of her<\/p>\n
title deed and a signed blank paper to the petitioner to facilitate<\/p>\n
receipt of token advance in case a deal is arranged by petitioner.<\/p>\n
C.R.P.No.391 of 2010            : 2 :<\/span><\/p>\n
In the meantime even without the assistance of petitioner<\/p>\n
respondent entered into an agreement for sale of her property<\/p>\n
with one Sajan and the property was sold to him. Petitioner<\/p>\n
demanded brokerage from the respondent. Respondent refused<\/p>\n
to oblige since petitioner had no role in the sale of property to<\/p>\n
Sajan. Enraged, petitioner has fabricated a demand promissory<\/p>\n
note and instituted the suit. Petitioner gave evidence as PW1 and<\/p>\n
proved Ext.A1.      Respondent gave contra evidence as DW1.<\/p>\n
Learned Munsiff observed that there is no specific denial of the<\/p>\n
signature of respondent in Ext.A1though, when petitioner was in<\/p>\n
the box and examined as PW1 it was suggested so. Learned<\/p>\n
Munsiff also made a comparison of the disputed signature in<\/p>\n
Ext.A1 with specimen signatures of respondent obtained in the<\/p>\n
course of her evidence and observed that signatures are similar,<\/p>\n
found no reason to disbelieve PW1 and granted decree as prayed<\/p>\n
for. Respondent challenged that judgment and decree before the<\/p>\n
learned Additional District Judge.     Learned Additional District<\/p>\n
Judge was of a different view. It is observed that on the facts and<\/p>\n
circumstances of the case learned Musniff was not correct in<\/p>\n
comparing the disputed signature with specimen signature and<\/p>\n
reaching a conclusion.     According to the learned Additional<\/p>\n
District Judge due execution of Ext.A1 is not proved and even if it<\/p>\n
is taken that signature in Ext.A1 is not disputed, that did not<\/p>\n
C.R.P.No.391 of 2010              : 3 :<\/span><\/p>\n
amount to admission or proof of the document as such. Relevant<\/p>\n
decisions on the point are referred to by the learned Additional<\/p>\n
District Judge.     Learned Additional District Judge took the view<\/p>\n
that there is no proper proof of execution of Ext.A1 and allowed<\/p>\n
the appeal.      That judgment and decree are under challenge.<\/p>\n
Learned counsel for petitioner contends that there was no good<\/p>\n
reason for the appellate court to reverse a well reasoned finding<\/p>\n
of the trial court which rested on a proper appreciation of<\/p>\n
evidence and a comparison of disputed signature with the<\/p>\n
admitted signatures of respondent which is permissible under<\/p>\n
Section 73 of the Evidence Act (for short, “the Act”).<\/p>\n
      2.     Revisional jurisdiction of this court under Section 115<\/p>\n
of the Code of Civil Procedure (for short, “the Code”) is limited in<\/p>\n
the sense that reappraisal of evidence is not warranted except to<\/p>\n
find whether finding entered by the subordinate court             is<\/p>\n
perverse or is not supported by any evidence. Bearing that in<\/p>\n
mind I shall refer to the evidence on record.\n<\/p>\n
      3.     As I stated, respondent denied borrowal from<\/p>\n
petitioner and execution of demand promissory note. Assuming<\/p>\n
that signature in Ext.A1 is not disputed, as rightly observed by<\/p>\n
learned Additional District Judge that does not amount to proof or<\/p>\n
admission of the due execution of the instrument though, it may<\/p>\n
be said that admission or proof of signature went a long way in<\/p>\n
C.R.P.No.391 of 2010            : 4 :<\/span><\/p>\n
proving due execution of the instrument. Still, when execution of<\/p>\n
the document is denied burden squarely fall on the propounder to<\/p>\n
prove its due execution. Here, so far as alleged execution of<\/p>\n
Ext.A1 is concerned what is available is only oath against oath. It<\/p>\n
is pertinent to note that in Ext.A1, there is no witness nor has<\/p>\n
petitioner a case that alleged transaction was witnessed by<\/p>\n
anybody. He does not admit that he is a real estate broker or<\/p>\n
that he had any other dealings with the respondent. In such a<\/p>\n
situation it is quite unlikely that without any witness to attest<\/p>\n
Ext.A1, a document like Ext.A1 would have been got executed.     I<\/p>\n
must also bear in mind that petitioner has no valid explanation<\/p>\n
why there happened to be no witness for Ext.A1. The further fact<\/p>\n
which I must bear in mind is that though petitioner has a case<\/p>\n
that he demanded repayment of the amount several times, he did<\/p>\n
not even care to issue a notice to the respondent so that<\/p>\n
respondent could give her reply to the case pleaded by petitioner.<\/p>\n
Instead, petitioner straight away instituted the suit.<\/p>\n
      4.     So far as comparison of disputed signature is<\/p>\n
concerned, no doubt Section 73 of the Act permits the court to do<\/p>\n
so. But, binding authorities on the point say that the court shall<\/p>\n
not relegate itself to the position of a witness by such<\/p>\n
comparison. Court shall not base its decision solely on the result<\/p>\n
of such comparison. I stated that there is only oath against oath.<\/p>\n
C.R.P.No.391 of 2010            : 5 :<\/span><\/p>\n
Nothing is brought out to disbelieve version of respondent. In<\/p>\n
such a situation what is available is only the comparison of<\/p>\n
disputed signature made by the learned Munsiff. That, appellate<\/p>\n
court rightly found was not proper in the absence of other<\/p>\n
acceptable evidence in favour of petitioner. Learned Additional<\/p>\n
District Judge has referred to the facts, evidence and question of<\/p>\n
law involved in holding that petitioner has not proved his case<\/p>\n
against respondent. That finding rest on a proper appreciation of<\/p>\n
the evidence on record in the light of the binding authorities on<\/p>\n
the point. I do not find any perversity or illegality in the finding<\/p>\n
of learned Additional District Judge requiring interference.<\/p>\n
      Revision petition is dismissed.\n<\/p>\n<\/p>\n
