This Application coming on this day before this court for hearing the court made the following order:
This application has been taken out by the plaintiff seeking to produce certified copies of the documents which have been marked as

Ex.P.2, 3, and 4. The plaintiff had actually produced self attested office copies of the letters and they were marked as Ex.P.2, 3, and 4. However, the respondent/defendant had objected to the marking of those documents claiming that those documents do not contain the signature of the Director. Upon such objection, the plaintiff has applied to the Police Department, in whose custody the original documents were available for issuance of certified copies. Since the concerned Police Department refused to issue certified copies, the applicant approached the Madurai Bench of this Court and upon directions of this Court, certified copies have been issued by the Police Department. Leave is sought for to produce those documents as additional documents.
27.01.2009 marked as Ex.P.2, 3 and 4 already are allowed to be produced as additional documents.
