VASDEV SARAN (DECD.) & ORS. v. CHANDER WATI DEVI

1. This is a regular second appeal which was withdrawn and this fact is recorded in the order dated 12.5.2009.

2. CM no.468/2002, is an application for cross objections filed by the respondent and the same was pending.

3. My learned Predecessor had framed a substantial question of law on 20.3.2012 which reads as under:- “Whether the finding of the learned sub-Judge, Delhi and learned lower appellate court in holding the deceased Vas Dev Saran, being represented through LRs a tenant of suit property is perverse? “ 2013:DHC:809

4. Thereafter, no sincere effort was made by the learned counsel for the respondent/objector to address the Court on this substantial question of law.

5. Today Mr.Chawla, learned counsel for the respondent has stated that the respondent /objector had sold the suit property to some third party. He was asked to inform about the date on which the interest in the suit property was transferred in favour of the third party, whereupon he sought a pass over in the forenoon. It is already 3.45 pm, he has not responded despite three calls in the afternoon. Accordingly, order is passed.

6. Since there is a categorical statement made by Mr.Chawla, learned counsel for the respondent that the interest in the suit property has been transferred in favour of third party, Order 22 Rule 10 CPC comes into operation, which reads as under:-

7. There is no application filed on behalf of the person on whom the interest in respect of the suit property has been assigned, created or devolved nor is the date given as to when the said interest has been created.

8. Accordingly, in my considered opinion, the present cross objections have to be dismissed in default.

9. File be consigned to the record room. V.K. SHALI, J. February 14, 2013 RN
