The plaintiff is owner in possession, of, the suit land. Through a lease deed, drawn inter-se, the plaintiff, and, the defendant, and, embodied in Ext. PW-1/C, the, demised premises were therethrough hence leased, to, the defendant. The validity, of, execution, of, Ext. PW-1/C, remains unchallenged before this Court. Since prior, to, the institution of the suit, seeking therethrough, hence rendition, of, a decree, for, recovery, of, unliquidated rent, and, also, for, rendition, of, a decree, of, vacant possession, of, the demised premises, from, the defendant, rather, a, legal notice borne in Ext. PW-1/D, and, wherewith postal receipt, borne in Ext. PW-1/E, stood affixed, became issued, and, also became served, upon, the defendant, (ii) and, despite the afore exhibits, becoming tendered, during, the course of his examination-in-chief, yet, the counsel for the defendant, during, the course of his subjecting, the, plaintiff, to, cross- examination, rather, failed to elicit, from him, any acquiescences, for, benumbing the factum, of, the afore legal notice becoming served, upon, the defendant, (ii) thereupon when thereafter, through the afore legal notice, as, embodied in Ext. PW-1/D, the tenancy, vis-a-vis, the demised premises, and, created qua the defendant, became, rather within the ambit, of, Section 106 of The Transfer of Property Act, hence validly terminated, (iii) thereupon, the, thereafter rather institution, of, the suit seeking therethrough rendition, of, a declaratory decree, against, the defendant, for, vacant possession, of, the demised premises, being delivered to the plaintiff, and, also for realization, of, unliquidated rent, and, also mesne profit(s), qua, the demised premises, from, the defendant, became well constituted, and, also the pronounced thereon, hence concurrent decrees, by, both the learned courts below, also assumes validation. 3. Be that as it may, the defendant, for, want of his recording his personal appearance before the Court, on 1.5.2013, besides for want of appearance, on, his behalf becoming made by his duly constituted counsel, rather constrained, the learned trial Court, to, order for his being proceeded against ex-parte. However, on 29.6.2013, the afore orders, as, made on 1.5.2013, were set aside.
However, on 29.6.2013, the afore orders, as, made on 1.5.2013, were set aside. Subsequent thereto, after striking of issues, upon, the apposite civil suit, the plaintiff, became cross-examined, by the learned counsel, for, the defendant, vis-a-vis, all, the, echoings, made in his examination-in-chief. As aforestated, during, the course of cross-examination of the plaintiff, no acquiescences, rather emanated therefrom hence, for, scuttling the plaintiff''s espousal qua the tenancy, vis-a-vis, the demised premises, becoming validly terminated, through, a legal notice, borne in Ext. PW-1/D, hence becoming served upon him. Nonetheless thereafter also, especially after closure, of, the plaintiff''s evidence, and, upon the defendant, being permitted, to adduce evidence, on the relevant issue, the latter, despite, the apposite civil suit, being listed, on 20.4.2016, rather omitted to record his personal appearance, before the learned trial Judge, (i) nor, his validly authorized counsel recorded therebefore his appearance, and, hence the defendant was ordered to be proceeded against ex-parte, and, after the learned trial Judge, concluded hence hearing arguments, upon, Civil Suit No. 29, of, 2013, on 25.4.2016, the, defendant, through, an application, cast under the provisions of Order 9 Rule 7 CPC, strived, to, therethrough, hence espouse, for, setting aside the orders, made, on 24.4.2016, (ii) and, wherethrough he was ordered, to be proceeded against ex-parte. The afore application, became dismissed, under an order, pronounced on 29.4.2016. 4. Even though, the counsel for the aggrieved defendant has contended, with much vigor, before this Court, that for want of an affirmative order, becoming pronounced, upon the afore application, hence, the defendant becoming precluded, to, adduce apposite discharging evidence, vis-a-vis, the relevant issue, (i) and, thereupon his rights, in, the demised premises, becoming critically jeopardized, despite, the factum qua tangible reasons becoming set-forth in the afore application, vis-a-vis, the relevant omission. However, the afore contentions, are, rudderless, as, the defendant''s counsel, had conducted, a lengthy cross-examination, upon, the plaintiff, and, was, as aforestated, unable to, during, the course of cross- examination, of, the plaintiff, hence elicit from him, the trite factum, vis-a-vis, the apposite statutory legal notice, embodied, in Ext. PW-1/D, remaining un-served, upon him.
However, the afore contentions, are, rudderless, as, the defendant''s counsel, had conducted, a lengthy cross-examination, upon, the plaintiff, and, was, as aforestated, unable to, during, the course of cross- examination, of, the plaintiff, hence elicit from him, the trite factum, vis-a-vis, the apposite statutory legal notice, embodied, in Ext. PW-1/D, remaining un-served, upon him. Moreover, since the defendant was represented by counsel, hence it was incumbent, upon, the counsel, engaged by the defendant, to record his appearance, on 20.4.2016, and, the reasons set-forth, in, the application for the afore omission, of the counsel engaged, by the defendant, hence to record his appearance, before the learned trial Judge, rather on the afore date, is, comprised in his being pre-occupied, in attending, the, marriage, of, his relative. However, for want, of, an affidavit, in support thereof, being sworn, by the apposite validly engaged counsel, rather makes the afore ground, hence, flimsy, and, hence obviously, this Court is constrained, not to validate, the afore espousal, made before this Court, by the learned counsel, for, the aggrieved defendant. 5. The above discussion, unfolds, qua the conclusion(s), as arrived by the learned first appellate Court, being based, upon a proper and mature appreciation, of, evidence on record. Accordingly, no substantial questions, of law, much less, a, substantial question of law, arises, for, determination, by this Court. 6. In view of the above discussion, the instant appeal, is, dismissed, and, the judgment and decree impugned, before this Court, is, affirmed and maintained. Decree sheet be prepared accordingly. All pending applications also stand disposed of. No order as to costs. Records be sent back forthwith.
