body2013
Judgment :- M.M. Sundresh, J. 1. The only challenge, in this appeal, is the imposition of costs of Rs.25,000/- [Rupees twenty five thousand only] by the learned single Judge. 2. The learned counsel appearing for the appellant would submit that he is only a waste paper merchant and it is very difficult for him to comply with the said order, directing him to pay costs. The learned counsel also submitted that the appellant has to take care of three children. 3. Learned counsel appearing for the 4th respondent fairly submitted that the payment of costs is left to the discretion of this Court. 4. Considering the above said submissions, we modify the order passed by the learned single Judge, by directing the appellant to pay a sum of Rs.5,000/- [Rupees five thousand only] towards costs, to the 4th respondent herein, who is the contesting respondent, within a period of three weeks, from the date of receipt of a copy of this order. 5. In the result, the Original Side Appeal is allowed in part. No costs. M.P.No.1 of 2013 is closed.
