Quick Summary: On December 16, 2025, the Delhi High Court decided that Ranjana Arora can't add new papers to her lawsuit against Devender Kumar's heirs. The case has been going on since 2011, and the court thinks this move is just to slow things down.
Ranjana Arora has been in a legal fight since 2011 in New Delhi. She wanted to add new papers to the case, saying they were lost. But the court wasn't convinced.
Judge Girish Kathpalia made it clear that adding new papers this late seemed like a trick to delay the final decision. He said:
"The request seemed to have been made only to delay the end of the case."
The papers Ranjana wanted to add were from 2010 to 2019. The court found it hard to believe she couldn't get them earlier. Plus, she could have gotten copies from the government.
Ranjana is a retired Customs and Excise Inspector, not someone unfamiliar with the law. The court noted she didn't give a solid reason for not filing the papers earlier. She just said they were lost.
In 2015, a similar request about a sale document was turned down, and Ranjana didn't challenge that decision. So, the court felt there was no reason to reopen the case now.
On December 16, 2025, Judge Kathpalia dismissed Ranjana's request and all related applications, stating:
"The request has no merit."
This decision keeps the case moving towards a conclusion without further delays.
