___________ SRS, J I.A.No.1 of 2022
Suit O.S.No.119 of 2016 was filed by the
appellant herein being the plaintiff against the
respondents seeking perpetual injunction.
Pending the suit, I.A.No.332 of 2016 was filed
restraining the respondents and their men from
interefering with the peaceful possession and
enjoyment of the plaintiff over the plaint
schedule property. Trial Court granted ad
interim injunction and the same was extended
till the disposal of the main suit. Eventually,
the suit was dismissed on 30.06.2022.
Against the said judgment and decree the
plaintiff filed appeal A.S.No.67 of 2022. In the
appeal, I.A.No.71 of 2022 under Order XXXIX
Rules 1 and 2 of CPC restraining the
respondents from raising any constructions on
the plaint schedule property till the disposal of
appeal. Initially, Appellate Court granted ad
interim injunction on 15.07.2022. After filing
counter by 5th respondent, by order dated
03.08.2022, the lower appellate Court dismissed
the said application. Against the said order, the
above CMA is filed.
The suit was filed seeking perpetual
injunction. Pending the suit, ad-interim
injunction restraining the respondents from
interfering with the possession of the plaintiff
was granted and the said order continued till
the disposal of the suit.
Pending appeal, I.A. was filed seeking
injunction restraining respondents from making
constrctuions and it was averred in the affidavit
that taking advantage of judgment in the suit,
respondents are trying to trespass into the
schedule property. Initially, Appellate Court
granted injunction and the same was vacated on
contest.
A perusal of the order of the Appellate
Court would indicate, that Appellate Court went
into merits of the matter and basing on the
observations of the trial Court in its judgment,
dismissed the application.
Prima facie, this Court of the opinion that
Appellate Court ought not to have recorded
findings basing on the findings in trial Court's
judgment. Appeal being continuation of the suit,
Appellate Court will decide the appeal after
appreciation of evidence recorded. The findings
recorded by Trial Court are under challenge
before the Appellate Court.
Considering facts and circumstances of
the case, and since the Appellate Court granted
ad interim injunction restraining the
respondents from making further constructions
and the same is operative till the disposal of
petition, this Court deems it appropriate to
grant interim injunction for a period of four
weeks restraining the respondents from making
any constructions in the plaint schedule
property, subject to the petitioner filing an
undertaking affidavit in consonance with Order
XXXIX Rule 3A of CPC Andhra Pradesh
Amendment within a period of two weeks from
today.
