Sanjib Hazarika and 3 Ors v. Dilip Saikia

ORDER

08.04.2024 Heard Mr. L K Borah, learned counsel for the petitioners. This is an application filed under Article 227 of the Constitution of India challenging the order dated 15.09.2023 passed by the learned Civil Judge (Junior Division) No. 2, Golaghat in Title Suit No. 20/2022. On 15.09.2023, the aforesaid Title Suit was posted for taking steps before the preliminary hearing. On that day, the plaintiffs filed an application praying for adjournment on the ground of illness. But the trial court simply rejected the application without showing any ground. I have considered the submission made by the learned counsel for the petitioners. Page No.# 3/3 The impugned order shows that the learned trial court did not exercise judicial mind while passing the impugned order. Therefore, the impugned order dated

15.09.2023 passed by the learned Civil Judge (Junior Division) No. 2, Golaghat in Title Suit No. 20/2022 is bad in law and stands set aside accordingly. The trial court shall provide at least one opportunity to the petitioners/plaintiffs to take steps before the preliminary hearing. With the aforesaid direction, the civil revision petition is disposed of.
