This Arbitration Original Petition has been filed to appoint a sole Arbitrator in place of the erstwhile Arbitrator in ACP.No.1 of 2019.
2. In the present case, vide order dated 01.04.2024, this Court directed the Registry to list this matter before the learned Master for adducing evidence by the petitioner.
3. When this matter was taken up by the learned Master on 15.04.2024, though the petitioner was present before the learned Master, he was not ready to adduce the evidence. Hence, the learned Master passed the following order:
"Petitioner present. Not ready to lead evidence. The learned counsel again seeks time stating that he is going to take application of appointment of Power of Attorney.
2/4
On 12.03.2024 and 01.04.2024, the Hon'ble Judge has passed conditional orders to adduce evidence. Despite the orders, again the petitioner seeks time, stating the above reason.
Hence, for summon orders, list before the Hon'ble Judge's Court."
