beyond the statutory period. The defendant has not come out with any proper or
substantial ground as to why, the defendant could not file the leave to defend within
the stipulated statutory period of 10 days as contemplated Order 37 Rule 3(5)
of CPC. The plaintiff is entitled to judgment and decree in his favour on this
ground alone.
3. That
even otherwise, defendant is not entitled to leave to defend and the same has
to be refused as leave to defend application does not disclose facts which
indicate that he has substantial defence. The application for leave to defend
has not disclosed any triable issue. Moreover, the defence intended to be put
