Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court examined the applicability of Rule 2 of Order 10 of the Code of Civil Procedure and the invocation of Section 340 of the Code of Criminal Procedure regarding the examination of parties. The Court held that the trial court has the discretion to allow or deny the reference of documents for expert examination, emphasizing that parties can present their evidence, including expert testimony, during the trial. The appeal was dismissed, affirming the High Court's decision to not refer the document to a handwriting expert at this stage.
