Defendant
 APPLICATION UNDER SECTION 151 OF CPC, 1908 SEEKING
      CONDONATION OF DELAY IN FILING THE WRITTEN
 STATEMENT ON BEHALF OF DEFENDANT NO.4 ALONGWITH
                            AFFIDAVIT
Most Respectfully Showeth:
  1. That the matter mentioned above is pending before this
    Hon’ble Court and is to be listed on 10.09.2024.
  2. In the above matter, the Hon’ble Court vide order dated
    16.07.2024 had directed Defendant no. 4 to file an appropriate
    application seeking condonation of delay in filing the Written
    Statement.
  3. In the present suit, Plaintiff has deliberately and intentionally
    not made Defendant No. 4 the necessary party only to mislead
    the Hon’ble Court. It is an undisputed fact that Defendant No. 4
    is the rightful and lawful owner of the suit property. Despite
    being completely aware of the fact, the Plaintiff hides true and
    correct facts from this Hon’ble Court.
4. That only upon application under Order 1 Rule 10, CPC, 1908
  Defendant no. 4 was impleaded as the necessary party. It is
  pertinent to mention that after filing of the said application
  Defendant No. 4 had changed its counsel from the undersigned
  and appointed a new counsel.
5. Pertinently, it is evident from the record, that from 21.10.2023
  onwards new counsel was representing Defendant No. 4, and
  despite acknowledging the said fact that a Written Statement
  to the suit has to be filed, the erstwhile counsel had failed to
  comply with the same and had not filed the Written Statement
  on behalf of Defendant no.4.
6. Being aggrieved by the same, Defendant No. 4 again engaged
  its undersigned counsel in the present case. On 13.02.2024 the
  undersigned counsel appeared on behalf of Defendant No. 4
  and the very same day copy of the Petition was provided. The
  Hon’ble Court due to the delay in filing the Written Statement
  had imposed cost upon Defendant No. 4 which was duly paid.
7. That on 18.04.2024 written Statement on behalf of Defendant
  no. 4 was filed and the same was duly taken on record. It is
  pertinent to mention that due to the change of counsel, the
  Written Statement on behalf of Defendant No. 4 could not be
  filed within the statutory period, and a delay of almost 60 days
  occurred in filing the same.
8. That the Delay of 60 days was neither intentional nor
  deliberate, but due to the reasons mentioned above. The
  present application may be accepted and the delay may be
condoned considering the reasons mentioned above in the
interest of justice.
                               PRAYER
    Given the above submissions, it is most humbly prayed before
    this Hon’ble Court to: -
    a. kindly allow the present application and condone the delay
      of 60 days in filing the Written Statement on behalf of
      Defendant No. 4.
    b. Pass any other order as this Hon’ble Court may deem fit and
      proper in the interest of justice in favor of Defendant No. 4.
                                                       Defendant No.4
