world ⚖️ Document admissibility not grounds for plaint rejection
The Supreme Court ruled that document admissibility must be decided during trial, not when seeking plaint rejection. This decision came after allowing an appeal by landowners against a Patna High Court order concerning an eviction suit. The case involved a supplementary lease deed, which defendants argued was inadmissible due to being unregistered under the Registration Act, 1908. The Court clarified that Order VII Rule 11 only examines plaint averments, making document admissibility a trial issue. Therefore, the rejection of the plaint cannot be based on a document's inadmissibility at that initial stage. ⚖️
