The defendant used call plaintiff as aunty while running the chits.  The same is written in chit books as aunty, names are not written.  Moreover the defendant has written the chit books in her own handwriting.  Is this books can be marked or not

If you know that it is a private chit,  as a Senior Assistant, why did you join the chit?

T. Kalaiselvan, Advocate (Advocate)     24 August 2025

If the books of accounts are original and has been pleaded in the plaint or the written statement, then the defendant can very well rely upon those as documentary evidences on his side and get it marked as exhibits during the witness evidence 

Dr. J C Vashista (Advocate )     24 August 2025

What is mentioned there in the plaint, has to be perused before forming an opinion and oblige.

As I feel the amount of private chit fund cannot be recovered through legal process, being an illegal and unathorised transaction, however, please correct me if it is not so.

Whether right to sue his/her legal representatives survive after death of the defendant ????

What is the role of a private handwriting expert (lab) i.e., how to prove it after death of the defendant ?

What is the advise of the lawyer engaged by the plaintiff ? If you have lost faith in your lawyer it is better to replace him/her immediately.

When the case is already sub-judiced what is the purpose of seeking second opinion of experts on the basis of limited facts posted herein the query??

Take help of local lawyer for proper legal guidance.

Hi all

thank you for your responses and replies.

the case is matured chits given as hand loan

1) after the defendant expired we have attached some of her properties.

they have agreed that the signatures in cheque and promissory note belongs to defendant and the same has been stolen by my mother plaintiff.  Further here the plaintiff is my mother it's not my self.

pw 3 who is the attestor of promissory note also told the the defendant signed infront of me by saying that she has to pay the money

hear the problem is in 1 st notice we mentioned that the amount has given time to time as hand loan and in rejoinder notice that the defendant used to run chit business and the matured chits has given has hand loan.

after the defendant death we have changed the lawyer and obtained the chit books which were in Ni act and taken hand Writting proof and submitted in civil suit

the judge has given judgement in favour of defendant due to difference in notice.

please reply

regards

guru

This is a repeated query.

Inspite of two postings, you have not cared post simple facts.

T. Kalaiselvan, Advocate (Advocate)     26 August 2025

I agree and endorse the views of expert Mr. P Venu sir. 

The querist has not come with proper details besides he has repeated the same question in a different form in another thread. 

Dr. J C Vashista (Advocate )     26 August 2025

Presumably it is for time pass 

guru murthy kalla (Senior Assistant)     26 August 2025

Sir 
Thank you for your response 
Judgement already pronounced in lower court in favour of defendant 

My point is

Executiion of promissory note already done by witnessing pw3 attestor of promissory note and defendant admitting signatures 

Sir question is burden lies on whom plaintiff or defendant?

1) plaintiff difference in notice a) 1st notice amount given as hand loan from time to time b) rejoinder notice matured chits has given as kept by defendant. Plaintiff has to prove by chit books.

2) defendant has to prove how cheque and promissory note stolen by police report 

I request please clarify burden lies on whom defendant or plaintiff 

Further the books are pleaded in chief, if high court won’t admit chit books which were written by defendant in her own hand Writting then what to do

Please reply

guru murthy kalla (Senior Assistant)     26 August 2025

guru

T. Kalaiselvan, Advocate (Advocate)     27 August 2025

Section 118 under which act?

The burden to prove the document always lies on the person who relies upon it.

guru murthy kalla (Senior Assistant)     27 August 2025

Sir

my query is if high court won't admit chit book.  Plaintiff already proved execution of promissory note by witness of pw3 is enough for winning the case

regards

guru
