Judgment
JUDGMENT This suit is filed for specific performance to enforce the sale agreement, dated 04.04.2008, which is marked as Exhibit A1. The plaintiff is the appellant herein and the defendant is the respondent herein. Both the suit and the first appeal were dismissed and it is concurrent finding. For the sake of convenience, the ranking of the parties in the suit is followed in the judgment.
¶2The contention of the plaintiff was that the said sale agreement was executed before the elders in the village. The defendant had filed a written statement denying the execution of the said sale agreement specifically denied the signature affixed in the alleged sale agreement. Hence the plaintiff has filed I.A.No.1193 of 2013 to compare the signature of the defendant which was executed in the Exhibit A1. The Trial Court allowed the application. However, the Judge declined to send it to forensic for comparing the signature, but had compared it with the signature affixed in vakalat and had held that the signature is not coinciding.
¶3The next contention of the plaintiff was that on the date of hearing there was a boycott by the Advocates, hence there was no effective hearing. The contention of the plaintiff is that the Appellate Court did not consider these pleas but has confirmed the judgment and decree of the Lower Court. Aggrieved over the same, the present second appeal is preferred.
¶4The prayer in the suit is for specific performance wherein the sale agreement was executed on 04.04.2008. In the agreement, the plaintiff had paid the entire sale consideration of Rs.35,000/- and the sale agreement states that the sale should be executed within five months. It is an admitted fact that the plaintiff did not send any notice showing the readiness and willingness to execute the sale deed as well as had not issued any pre suit notice. The suit was filed on 30.08.2011, until the filing of the suit, the plaintiff had not issued any notice. Absolutely there was no whisper of any indication that the plaintiff was ready and willing to execute the sale deed.
¶5Therefore, even though no proper opportunity was granted to the plaintiff as claimed by the plaintiff, the plaintiff has no case on merits at all. Therefore, this Court is not inclined to entertain this second appeal. Hence, the second appeal is dismissed. No costs. Consequently, connected miscellaneous petition is closed.
