JUDGEMENT
APARESH KUMAR SINGH,J. -
(1.) Heard learned counsel for the parties.
(2.) The order rejecting application under Section 94(3) CPC dated 15th April, 2015 in Title Suit No. 45 of 1992 is under challenge in the
present writ application. Petitioner has also prayed for a direction upon
the court below for reconstruction of plaintiff's exhibits of Title Suit
No. 45 of 1992 pending in the Court of learned Civil Judge-VIII (Senior
Division), Ranchi. The suit is of the year 1992 praying for declaration
that plaintiff nos. 3 and 4 are coparceners of defendant nos. 1 and 2
being male members of joint family and plaintiff as the members of the
said joint family is not bound by collusive Partition Suit no. 20 of
1977, which was decreed by the Court of Sub Judge-I Ranchi. Plaintiff had also sought further relief for declaration as member of the joint family
owning the suit property and right of unrestricted access to the
residence of the suit property. On her application on 22nd August, 1992,
temporary injunction was granted by order at Annexure-1, restraining the
defendants from disturbing the peaceful possession of the plaintiff.
Parties were directed to maintain status quo till the filing of show
cause. In 2010, an application was moved under Order 39 Rules 1 & 2 read
with Section 151 CPC by the plaintiff on which vide order dated 24th
November, 2010, it was recorded that learned counsel for the defendants
have submitted that they would not indulge in disturbance. It is not a
matter of dispute that certain exhibits adduced by the plaintiff during
the course of suit have vanished and are not available on the records of
learned trial court as is apparent from the order dated 9th December,
2010. A prayer for reconstruction of the document has been made on behalf of plaintiff on which vide order dated 17th June, 2015, the matter has
been referred to the Court of Principal Judicial Commissioner, Ranchi for
according permission to reconstruct the said document. The order records
that the defendants have not made any objection to the documents sought
to be reconstructed.
(3.) Learned counsel for the respondents also reiterated the stand that they would not have any objection to reconstruction of the document.
During the continuance of the proceedings, an application was again made
under Order 39 Rule 2 alleging that the order of interim injunction is
being violated and it should be continued to restrain the respondents
from causing breach of peace. That prayer was declined by learned court
below vide order dated 11th February, 2015 (Annexure-6) to the writ
petition. That order however is not under challenge. Plaintiff took
resort of the provisions of Section 94 read with Section 151 CPC alleging
that under supplemental powers available to learned court below, it could
restrain the respondents from undertaking any construction over the suit
property and causing breach of peace despite the fact that a petition
under Order 39 Rule 2 had also been rejected.;
