CPC has allowed the application permitting the appellant to lead evidence by producing the certified copy of the plaint in O.S.No.362/2003, after framing the additional issues. Since the documents produced are relevant to the case in dispute, the plaintiff has to establish that he is the son of the first defendant – C.D.Devaiah. Therefore, the I Appellate Court rightly allowed the application. Pursuant to that order, the parties have adduced their evidence. There is no error or illegality in the order passed by the I Appellate Court.
4. The writ petition is devoid of merit. Accordingly, it is dismissed. The I Appellate Court is directed to dispose of the appeal as expeditiously as possible. In view of disposal of the petition, all pending applications stand disposed of.
