¶24

The plaintiffs filed the Original Suit seeking permanent injunction against the defendants and for costs. The said Suit was dismissed after full Trial on November 2, 2010. Feeling aggrieved by the decree and judgment passed by the Trial Court, the plaintiffs prepared an Appeal with delay of 1523 days. The delay condonation application has been numbered as I.A.No.5 of 2015 along with I.A.No.1 of 2021 filed under Order XLI Rule 27 of the Code of Civil Procedure praying to receive additional documents. The First Appellate Court after hearing both sides dismissed the I.A.No.1 of 2021 vide Order dated September 13, 2022. Aggrieved by the said Order, the plaintiffs filed this revision petition.

¶25

This Court heard on both sides. The delay condonation petition in I.A.No.5 of 2015 is still pending before the First Appellate Court. Application under Order XLI Rule 27 CPC would lie only after numbering the appeal Suit. It is discernible from the records, that the petitioner filed this I.A.No.1 of 2021 praying to receive the documents listed in the petition
