JUDGMENT

Harsimran Singh Sethi, J. (Oral) - The present revision petition has been filed by the petitioner, who is a defendant in the civil suit so as to challenge the order dated 09.12.2022 (Annexure P/3) by which, an application filed by another defendant namely, Narinder Singh for setting aside exparte order dated 14.02.2018, has been allowed by the trial Court as the plaintiff did not raise any objection for the grant of the said benefit.

2. Learned counsel for the petitioner-defendant argues that allowing the said application by the trial Court is causing prejudice to the petitioner-defendant as now the decision of the civil suit will take more time.

3. This argument noticed hereinbefore, raised by the learned counsel for the petitioner/defendant is not maintainable for the reason that the suit has been filed by the plaintiff, who is the master of the suit.

4. Petitioner along with others were arrayed as defendants. All the parties are related to each other. One of the defendant was proceeded exparte and upon his application to allow the co-defendant to join the proceedings by setting aside the order proceeding the said defendant exparte, the plaintiff has raised no objection for
