Civil Judge (Senior Division), Chandigarh, dismissing his application seeking permission to examine handwriting expert in rebuttal evidence.

2. Learned counsel for the petitioner has assiduously argued that the learned trial court has committed a grave error in not permitting the petitioner to examine handwriting expert at the stage of rebuttal evidence holding that he was required to examine him only in affirmative evidence. He further contended that in order to arrive at a right conclusion, learned trial court should have afforded an opportunity to the petitioner to compare signatures of the respondent on the agreement to sell and other documents Ex.P2 to Ex.P6, by getting an expert examined in rebuttal evidence, especially when the respondent-defendant, during his cross-examination, denied his signatures thereon.
