District Collector, Ajmer ----Defendants/Non Applicants/Proforma Respondents For Petitioner(s) : Ms. Shikha Parnami For Respondent(s) : HON'BLE MR. JUSTICE BIPIN GUPTA Judgment / Order 18/03/2026 1. The present writ petition has been filed assailing the order dated 28.01.2025, passed by the learned Additional District Judge [2026:RJ-JP:11519] (2 of 3) [CW-12790/2025] No. 2, Beawar, District Ajmer, whereby the application under Order VIII Rule 9 CPC seeking permission for the plaintiff-petitioner to file a rejoinder to the reply of defendant No. 3 has been rejected. 2. Learned counsel for the plaintiff-petitioner submits that the plaintiff had filed application for temporary injunction. In the reply, the defendants set up a will and made assertions regarding the same in Paragraph Nos. 4 and 16. 3. Learned counsel for the petitioner further submits that the fact of the will constitutes a new plea, which was not part of the original temporary injunction application. Therefore, it is necessary for the plaintiff-petitioner to file a rejoinder to address the said new plea raised by the defendants. 5. He further submits that the rejoinder is confined only to Paragraph Nos. 4 and 16 of the reply, as stated in Paragraph No. 4 of the rejoinder. 6. Heard. 7. Despite service, no one appears on behalf of the respondents to oppose the present writ petition. Accordingly, the matter is being decided ex-parte. 8. Upon perusal of the record, it is evident that the plaintiff- petitioner had filed application for temporary injunction and there was no reference to any will in the temporary injunction application. The defendants, however, raised a defence based on a will allegedly in their favour and contended that the temporary injunction application is liable to be dismissed on that basis. To counter this new plea, the plaintiff-petitioner sought permission to file a rejoinder confined to Paragraph Nos. 4 and 16 of the reply. [2026:RJ-JP:11519] (3 of 3) [CW-12790/2025] 9. This Court finds that the learned Trial Court, while passing the impugned order, observed that the relevant facts were already pleaded in the temporary injunction application. However, no such facts are found in the temporary injunction application. Since the plea regarding the will is a new fact introduced by the defendants, the plaintiff-petitioner is entitled to file a rejoinder to the said plea. 10. Therefore, the impugned order is perverse and contrary to the settled principles of law and is, therefore, quashed and set aside. The petitioner’s rejoinder, confined to Paragraph Nos. 4 and 16, as stated in Paragraph No. 4 of the rejoinder, is permitted to be taken on record. 11. With the above observations, the present civil writ petition stands disposed of. 12. Pending application(s), if any, also stand disposed of. (BIPIN GUPTA),J MAHIMA/32
