(2.) THE brief facts of the case are that Krishan Gopal Verma, the plaintiff -respondent, instituted a civil suit for recovery of Rs. 66,990/ -against Nirmal Kodwani, the appellant, on the ground that the defendant had engaged services of plaintiff for videography and photography of the marriage of defendant's daughter, Pooja, which was solemnised in Delhi on 6 -12 -2005. According to the plaintiff he had raised two different bills, namely first one for Rs. 10,660/ -, and second one for Rs. 48,285/ -. Initially the defendant promised to pay the bills, but subsequently, he failed to do so. Therefore, on 25 -6 -2007, the plaintiff sent a legal notice to the defendant. Since the defendant still did no pay the bills, the plaintiff filed the suit for recovery of the due amount.

(3.) LEARNED Counsel for the appellant, Mr. Vishwajeet Mantri, has vehemently contended that the the appellant happens to be a resident of Dubai, and his daughter's marriage was performed at Delhi. Thus, there is no reason why the appellant would have hired the services of the plaintiff at Kishangarh. Secondly, the plaintiff has fabricated a false case against the appellant, and has falsely pleaded that the appellant owes money for the alleged videography and photography. Thirdly, the learned Judge has overlooked these glaring facts. Fourthly, the learned Judge has not given any cogent reason for believing the evidence produced by the plaintiff. Thus, the impugned judgment is a non -speaking one.
