Well, When someone deletes the file after you have created, and then you try to write into it, then the catch block comes into picture. But, I guess, that might not happen since the file would be locked. I am not sure though.
But just in case, that happens, don't you think, it's actually an EXCEPTION? While trying to write into a file without checking if that file exists or not is ideal I would say.
