JUDGEMENT
DARSHAN SINGH,J. -
(1.) DARSHAN SINGH,J. (ORAL)
1. The present revision petition has been preferred against the order dated 03.03.2016 passed by the learned Civil
Judge (Sr. Divn.), Jalandhar, whereby the application filed by
the petitioner/defendant No.1 seeking stay of proceedings has
been dismissed.
(2.) Learned counsel for the petitioner contended that the present suit has been filed by respondents No.1 to
6/plaintiffs by concealing the material facts. He contended that earlier respondents No.1 to 6/plaintiffs, Sarwan Singh and the
predecessor in interest of respondents No.5 and 6 namely
Sucha Singh had filed the suit against the
petitioner/defendants Satnam Singh and others seeking
declaration on the basis of the alleged Will dated 15.02.1996
with respect to the land in dispute. The said suit was
dismissed and the Will propounded by the plaintiff was
discarded. The regular second appeal in that suit is still
pending before this Court. He contended that the parties, suit
property and the matter in issue involved in the previous and
the present suit are the same. All these facts have been
concealed by the plaintiffs in the present suit. He contended
that the suit of the plaintiffs/respondents is barred under Order
2 Rule 2 of Code of Civil Procedure, 1908 (for short "CPC") and the same was required to be stayed till the pendency of
the regular second appeal before this Court.
(3.) I have duly considered the aforesaid contentions.;
