The examination-in-chief of the plaintiff’s witness is concluded. As had been suggested to counsel for the parties earlier, there are several

documents of the Judge’s Brief which have been admitted by the defendant and this would be evident from a letter dated 20th August, 2018 from

the respective advocate-on-record of the plaintiff to the defendant where a series of the plaintiff’s documents have been admitted by the

defendant pursuant to discussions between counsel.

A list of such documents has been handed over to the Court and submitted by counsel for the plaintiff that all these documents have been admitted by

counsel representing the defendant no.1 and should be, accordingly marked as exhibits without going through the rigours of an examination-in-chief.

As agreed by the parties, let the documents, save and except serial nos.2, 3, 4 and 5 which have already been marked as exhibits during the

examination-in-chief of plaintiff’s witness, be marked as exhibits.
