Application for Recall and Appeal can be filed and maintained at the same time
19. In A. K. P. Haridas v. V. A. Madhavi Amma and others, MANU/KE/0076/1988 : AIR 1988 Ker 304, the Court observed that the remedy under Order IX, Rule 13 and that by way of appeal are not inconsistent, or mutually exclusive. There is no bar in resorting to both the remedies simultaneously or any of them alone. The relevant paragraph reads as under :
There is no bar in resorting to both the remedies simultaneously or any of them alone. Only thing is that when both remedies are attempted and one succeeds the other becomes infructuous since the object and effect of both is the same. Availability of the remedy by way of appeal is no bar to an application under Order IX. Rule 13, if such a remedy is also available to the party. For example when the defendant is set ex parte under Order IX. Rule 6 and an ex parte decree passed, though that decree is appealable, an application under Order IX, Rule 13 also will lie. The real question for consideration is only whether an application under Order IX, Rule 13 will lie.
20. Thus, it is imminently clear that a decree passed for defendant's default in filing written statement is an ex parte decree duly comes within the ambit of Order IX, Rule 13 and as such an application to set aside underOrder IX, Rule 13 is maintainable.
