The provision in Order 18 Rule 16 CPC relates to examination of witness immediately and not immediate witness. It provides when a witness may not be available on any other date for deposition. A similar provision for such a witness can be found in Section 164 Cr.P.C. which can help such a witness to make a confession or statement before magistrate.
