CALL FOR THE RECORDS IN WP NO.20075/2024 BEFORE THE
HON'BLE HIGH COURT OF KARNATAKA AT BENGALURU AND
REVIEW THE JUDGMENT PASSED BY THE HON'BLE HIGH
COURT OF KARNATAKA AT BENGALURU IN WP NO.20075/2024
DATED 30/7/2024, PRODUCED HEREWITH AS ANNEXURE-A.

     THIS REVIEW PETITION IS COMING ON FOR ADMISSION,
THIS DAY, ORDER WAS MADE THEREIN AS UNDER:

CORAM: HON'BLE MR. JUSTICE R DEVDAS


                      ORAL ORDER

Learned Counsel, Smt.Jayashree.P., has entered appearance for the respondents. The learned counsel is present before the court.

2. Learned Counsel for the review petitioner submits that the respondents filed the writ petition before this Court being aggrieved of the order passed by the Executing Court in an interlocutory application by the petitioner herein under Order XXVI Rule 10 (b) read with Section 151 of CPC in Execution Case No.162/2019.

3. However, this Court accepted the submissions made at the bar and without even issuing notice to the -3- NC: 2025:KHC:42330 RP No. 393 of 2024 HC-KAR respondent, that is the petitioner herein, this Court proceeded to pass the order on the date when the matter had come up for Preliminary Hearing before this Court.

4. Learned Counsel submits that the respondents have concealed the fact that the review petitioner had filed the execution case based on the compromise decree passed in the Lok Adalat and on failure of the respondents herein in complying with the terms of the settlement, the review petitioner had approached the Executing Court. Therefore the question of the Executing Court accepting the amount sought to be tendered at the hands of the respondent at this stage would not arise. The matter was required to be considered on its merits.

5. Learned counsel would therefore submit that the order passed in the writ petition may be recalled and the writ petition may be restored to enable the review petitioner herein to contest the matter before this Court. -4-

NC: 2025:KHC:42330 RP No. 393 of 2024 HC-KAR

6. Learned Counsel for the respondents however submits that the submissions made before this Court was that in terms of the compromise decree, the respondents herein had agreed to pay Rs.2,30,000/- to the review petitioner herein on or before 09.06.2019 and therefore the review petitioner cannot contend that any concealment was made on the part of the respondents herein when the writ petition was heard by this Court.

7. Having heard the learned counsel for the review petitioner, the learned counsel for the respondents and on perusing the petition papers, this Court is of the considered opinion that the writ petition was disposed of on the date when the matter was listed for Preliminary Hearing, without notice to the respondents, only on the basis of the submissions made by the learned counsel for the writ petitioner. The facts sought to be submitted now at the hands of the review petitioner were not brought to the notice of this Court.

8. This is sufficient to hold that the review petitioner has made out a case of an error apparent on the face of the record.

9. Accordingly, the review petition is allowed. The order dated 30.07.2024 passed in W.P.No.20075/2024 is hereby recalled. The writ petition is restored to its original file. Office is directed to list the writ petition before the bench having roster.

10. Parties are directed to maintain status quo as on this day regarding the suit schedule property.

Ordered accordingly.
