JUDGMENT :
AJAY MOHAN GOEL, J.
CMP (M) No. 1754 and 1755 of 2025
1. By way of these two applications, a prayer has been made to bring on record the legal representatives of deceased respondent No.6 as well as for condonation of delay in filing the application and setting aside abatement.
2. Mr. Ashwani Kumar Negi, Advocate, has put in appearance on behalf of the proposed respondents.
3. In the light of the averments made in the applications, the same are allowed. The name of deceased respondent No.6 is ordered to be deleted from the array of respondents. The proposed legal representatives are impleaded as respondents No.6(a) to 6(d) in place of the deceased respondent No.6. Delay in filing the applications are condoned and abatement, if any, set aside. Application
Order 7 Rule 11 CPC application decided solely on plaint averments and documents; no defence consideration, issue-framing, or witness examination permitted, as it constitutes impermissible mini-trial....
The rejection of a plaint under Order 7, Rule 11 must consider substantive issues and cannot be based solely on procedural grounds if differing issues are raised in subsequent petitions.
It is perspicuous and indubitable, even from a plain reading of afore provision that, what is provided for is rejection of plaint if any of causes.
