(A Division Bench of the Supreme Court comprising of Justice Nageswara Rao and Justice Indu Malhotra while  imposing a cost of Rs.1,00,000/- on the Appellant, dismissed the Civil Appeal filed by the Appellant by holding that the  delay of over 5 and 1⁄2 years after the alleged cause of action arose in 2009, shows that the suit was clearly barred by limitation as per Article 59 of the Limitation Act, 1963. The suit was instituted on 15.12.2014, even though the alleged cause of action arose in 2009, when the last cheque was delivered to the Plaintiffs. The Plaintiffs have failed to discharge the onus of proof that the suit was filed within the period of limitation. The plaint is therefore, liable to be rejected under Order VII Rule 11 (d) of CPC. Reliance is placed on the recent judgment of this Court rendered in Raghwendra Sharan Singh v. Ram Prasanna Singh (Dead) by LRs. Civil Appeal No.2960/2019 decided on 13.03.2019 wherein this Court held the suit would be barred by limitation under Article 59 of the Limitation Act, if it was filed beyond three years of the execution of the registered deed.)
