ORDER :- This revision has been filed against an order of the trial court refusing to strike out the name of the defendant No. 7 from the array of parties.

2. The suit has been filed by the plaintiff for specific performance of a contract of sale of an agricultural land. The contract was, according to the plaintiff, between him and Smt. Onkari. Smt. Onkari had agreed to transfer, her one-third share in the agricultural land and had taken an earnest money also in respect of the same. Defendant No. 7 obtained a decree against Smt. Onkari and in execution of that decree, during the pendency of the present suit, purchased her share in this very property at an auction-sale.

Defendant No. 7 then applied for striking out his name.
