RAM KISHUN vs SULEKHA — 8/2025

Summary The District Judge of Hamirpur dismissed the civil revision petition filed by Ram Kishun against the trial court's order dated 24.03.2025. The trial court had accepted Sulekha's application (under CPC Order 9 Rule 7) to recall the ex-parte order passed against her, granting her relief with costs of Rs. 500, on grounds that she had suffered personal hardship (death of husband and illness of son) preventing her court appearance. The appellate court upheld this decision, holding that the trial court correctly applied the law by hearing both parties and deciding on merits, as the amended Section 115(3) CPC requires that essential parties be heard to prevent failure of justice, regardless of mere delay.
