Page3 of 4
Judgment and Decree dated 03.01.2025 passed in C.S.(Comm.Div.)
No.94 of 2021.
2. The underlying dispute relates to a redemption suit filed by
the Appellants concerning a First Mortgage Deed dated 16.04.2012
executed for a loan of Rs.1.50 crores. The Appellants contended that
they had paid a total sum of Rs.3,87,21,482/- and were entitled to a
refund of excess payments amounting to Rs.1,91,67,279/- based on
legal interest rates. Further, the Appellants challenged a Second
Simple Mortgage Deed dated 13.03.2020 as being a sham and
nominal document unsupported by consideration. The suit was
dismissed by the Learned Single Judge on 03.01.2025, following
which this appeal was preferred.
3. During the pendency of the above Appeal, the Appellants and the
Respondents have entered into an amicable settlement out of court,
resolving all disputes and claims arising from the subject matter of the
suit and the appeal.
4. In view of the said settlement, the Appellants do not wish to press
the present Appeal and seek the leave of this Hon’ble Court to
withdraw the same as ‘Settled Out of Court.”
5. The Appellants have paid a substantial Court Fee Memorandum of
Appeal. Since the matter has been settled out of court between the
parties, the Appellants are entitled to a refund of the Court Fee as per
the relevant provisions of the Tamil Nadu Court Fees and Suits
Valuation Act, 1955.
It is therefore prayed that this Hon’ble Court may be pleased to:
a) Record this Memo and permit the Appellants to withdraw O.S.A.
(CAD) No.42 of 2025 as settled out of court; and
b) Direct the Registry to refund the Court Fee paid on the
Memorandum of appeal to the Appellants or their Counsel, and thus
render justice
Dated at Chennai on this the 10th day of April, 2025.’
2. Let an application be made by the appellants before the Registry for
refund of Court fee. No costs.
