Date of hearing : 19th October, 1980.
‑This a petition by Kaley Khan tenant who was ordered by the learned Rent Controller to be evicted from the property in dispute on the ground of default in the payment of rent and the personal need of the respondent landlady. The petitioner's first and second appeals were dismissed by the learned District Judge and the High Court on 6‑0‑1980 and 15‑4‑1980, respectively. The petitioner has come up in petition for special leave to appeal against the same to this Court.
2: As will be evident, the case is concluded by finding of fact and apparently is not fit for grant of special leave to appeal. When confronted with the situation' ‑the learned counsel tried to argue that certain receipts which had been produced by his client to show the payment of rent have her misread and not properly construed. However, when he took us through these receipts .it became evident‑that even these documents showed him as a defaulter in the payment of rent.
3. No other point was argued before us.
4. The result is that this petition has no merit and is dismissed.
Petition dismissed.
