THIS PETITION COMING ON FOR ORDERS THIS DAY, ORDER WAS MADE THEREIN AS UNDER: - 27 - NC: 2025:KHC-D:1530 WP No. 107443 of 2024 ORAL ORDER (PER: THE HON'BLE MR. JUSTICE SURAJ GOVINDARAJ) 1. The petitioners are before this Court seeking for the following reliefs: a. Issue a Writ of certiorari or any other appropriate writ or Order setting aside the impugned order dated 06.11.2024 passed on IA No.79 in OS No.259/2013 on the file of the Ii Additional Senior Civil Judge and JMFC, Hubballi which is produced and marked as Annexure-P, thereby allow the application to meet the ends of justice and equity. b. Grant such other relief/s which this Hon’ble court may deem fit under the fact and circumstances of the case. 2. Respondent Nos.1 and 2 had filed a suit in O.S.No.259/2013 seeking for a declaration, partition, and separate possession, wherein the petitioners were arrayed as defendants No.1 and 2. Defendant No.1 was examined as DW-2 and cross-examined by the counsel for defendants No.3 to 8, who are also other family members, and defendant No.11, who is the purchaser. - 28 - NC: 2025:KHC-D:1530 WP No. 107443 of 2024 3. An application under Section 151 of the Code of Civil Procedure came to be filed, which came to be numbered as I.A.No.79/2024 seeking to strike out the cross-examination dated 25.10.2024 of aforesaid DW-2 by the counsel for defendants No.3 to 8 and 11. The said application came to be dismissed vide order dated 06.11.2024. Challenging the said order, the petitioners are before this Court. 4. The contention of the counsel for the petitioners is that, there is no adverse interest between defendant No.1, and defendants No.3 to 8 and 11. As such, they could not have cross-examined DW-2 and having cross-examined him, the Trial Court ought to have allowed I.A.No.79 and struck off the cross- examination. 5. Having heard the learned counsel for the petitioners, since the suit is one for declaration, partition, and separate possession, it is trite law that all the family members would be plaintiffs as also defendants in - 29 - NC: 2025:KHC-D:1530 WP No. 107443 of 2024 the suit, and all of them would having an interest, which needs to be determined in the said suit. Defendant No.1 and defendants No.3 to 8 being family members not being in dispute, all of them are plaintiffs and defendants in the said suit. As such, the question of whether there is conflict of interest or not, when each of them being plaintiff and a defendant, would not arise. 6. Any of the family members can always cross- examine the other family member in the said suit, since in a suit for partition, a member of the family occupies the position of both plaintiff and defendant, and if any particular family member wishes to cross- examine another family member, it would be required to be permitted to be so done and such cross-examination would have to be considered on merits and cannot be struck off on the ground that there is no conflict of interest. - 30 - NC: 2025:KHC-D:1530 WP No. 107443 of 2024 7. No grounds being made out, the petition stands dismissed. Sd/- (SURAJ GOVINDARAJ) JUDGE gab CT-MCK List No.: 1 Sl No.: 20
