| Decision |
The petition filed by the petitioner under Order XI, Rule 14 of the Civil Procedure Code was dismissed by the Appellate Court. The court found that the remedy sought did not align with the spirit of the law, as the stage for 'discovery and inspection' had already passed. The application was vague and merely requested the production of two documents without sufficient justification. The court concluded that the impugned order was correct, and the petition was not suitable for regular hearing. |

The ruling emphasized the importance of following procedural guidelines and the necessity of presenting a clear and justified request for document disclosure. The court ruled that the application did not serve the interests of either party and that the appropriate stage for such requests had passed.
