IA.No.2336/2008 in OS.No.369/2008, on the file of the Principal Dist.Munsif
Munsif, Pollachi, dated 25-07-2024.
For Petitioner(s): Mr.C.Veera Raghavan
For Respondent(s): Mr. S.Prabhu for R1
R2 To R4 - Service Awaited
ORDER
Challenging the impugned order passed in I.A.No.1175 of 2015 in
I.A.No.2336 of 2008 in O.S.No.369 of 2008 by the learned Principal District
Munsif, Pollachi, the Revision Petitioner/defendant had preferred this Civil
Revision Petition.
2. The learned counsel for Revision Petitioner would submit that
immediately after the filing of the Commissioner’s report in I.A. No.2336 of
2008, he filed an application in I.A.No.1175 of 2015 for giving a direction to
the same Commissioner to re-visit the property along with the Surveyor for the
reason that on perusal of Commissioner’s report, the plan of Surveyor was
erroneously drawn without showing the encroachment said to be committed by
the 1st respondent/plaintiff, which was shown at the time of inspection.
Therefore, he wanted to re-issue the warrant to the same Advocate
Commissioner. But, the trial judge erroneously dismissed the said applica tion
holding that when the suit was filed in the year 2008, at the comme ncement of
trial, to drag on the proceedings, he came forward with the said application. The

learned counsel would further submit that immediately after the Advocate
Commissioner’s report, he filed that application in the year 2015, but the said
application was not disposed of as early as possible. Hence, he pra yed to set
aside the findings of trial judge.
3. The learned counsel for 1 st respondent/plaintiff would submit that now
at the time of commencement of P.W.1 cross and the trial has also begun, he
filed the application seeking a direction to the same Commissioner to re-visit
the property without assigning any reason. He would also submit that af ter
lapse of six years from the date of the said Commissioner’s report, he wanted
the Advocate Commissioner to re-visit for the very same purpose. There fore,
the trial judge has rightly dismissed the said application. Hence, he prayed to
dismiss this Civil Revision Petition.
4. Heard and considered rival submissions made on either side and
perused the materials available on record.
5. Considering both side submissions, the fact reveals that the relief of
permanent injunction was claimed by the 1 st respondent/plaintiff in the year
2008 and all these years, the suit is pending due to non-availability of Pr esiding
Officer of that Court and now, the trial has begun. Admittedly, the Advocate
Commissioner was appointed and with the help of Surveyor, he measured the
property and submitted the report. Now, the revision petitioner/defe ndant has
found that there is a discrepancy in the Commissioner’s report. Hence, he
wanted to re-visit the property, for which, he had filed the appli cation in the

year 2015, which shows that immediately after the filing of the Advocate
Commissioner’s report, he filed the said application. So, to give one more
opportunity, this Court is inclined to set aside the findings rendered in
I.A.No.1175 of 2015 in I.A.No.2336 of 2008 in O.S.No. 2336 of 2008 by the
learned Principal District Munsif, Pollachi and the application in I.A . No.1175
of 2015 is allowed. At the cost of revision petitioner/defendant, the A dvocate
Commissioner is directed to re-visit the property, measure the prope rty with the
help of Surveyor and to submit the report within a period of four weeks from
the date of receipt of copy of this order. Thereafter, the tria l judge is directed to
proceed with the matter and dispose the case within a period of three months.
Accordingly, this Civil Revision Petition is allowed. No costs. Consequent ly,
connected civil miscellaneous petition is closed.
