All the defendants contested the suit. On 24-2-1983 the suit was decreed, granting one month time to the petitioner herein to deposit the balance of sale consideration. Since the petitioner heroin did not deposit the balance of sale consideration within the time given, defendants filed I.A.No. 515 of 1983 for revoking the contract. At the same time, petitioner herein, filed I. A.No. 565 of 1983 for extension of time for depositing the amount. By a common order the Sub Court allowed I.A.No. 515 of 1983 and dismissed I.A.No. 565 of 1983. Against the said common order, plaintiff in the suit, filed the above revisions.
