1908.

THIS MISCELLANEOUS FIRST APPEAL COMING ON FOR
ORDERS, THIS DAY, THE COURT DELIVERED THE FOLLOWING:
JUDGMENT
Sri.K.Bhanuprasad, learned counsel for appellant and
Smt.Latha S.Shetty, learned counsel for respondents 1 & 4
have appeared through video conferencing.
2. The facts are quite simple. The appellant has
filed a suit O.S.No.5481/2017 for partition and allotment of
her legitimate share in all the suit schedule properties. The
appellant has also filed an interim application along with
the plaint under Order 39 Rule 1 and 2 of the Code of Civil
Procedure seeking temporary injunction to restrain the
respondents 1 to 4 (defendants 1 to 4 in the pending suit),
their agents or anybody acting under them from alienating
the suit schedule properties including the apartments.
The Trial Court had issued emergent notice on IA
No.2 along with suit summons to the respondents. The
respondents have entered appearance before the Trial
Court and they filed an application for rejection of plaint. It
is said that constant request had been made to the Court
to consider application i.e., IA No.2 for granting preventive
relief. But the same has not been considered so far even
after two years.
3. Sri.K.Bhanu Prasad., learned counsel while
presenting his argument, strenuously urged that the suit is
filed in the year 2017 and the plaintiff has filed an
application for injunction but the same has not been
considered by the Trial Court. It also submitted that the
respondents have already alienated Item No.9 of the plaint
schedule property and they are making hectic efforts to
alienate other properties also.
Learned counsel therefore submits that the appeal
may be disposed of directing the Trial Court to consider
the application i.e., I.A.No.2 and pass appropriate order.
Submission is noted.
4. Learned counsel for respondents 1 to 4 has
urged several contentions.
5. Heard the contentions urged on behalf of
respective parties.
Suffice it to note that the suit is filed on 10.08.2017.
The plaintiff has filed an application in I.A.No.2 along with
plaint under Order 39 Rule 1 and 2 of CPC seeking
temporary injunction. The grievance of the appellant is
that despite constant request, the Trial Court has not
considered the application. In my view, the grievance
appears to be genuine for the simple reason that as and
when an application is moved by the parties, it is the duty
of the Court to consider the same and pass appropriate
orders thereon. In the present case, though the application
is filed way back in the year 2017, the Trial Court has not
made any attempt to consider the same and pass
appropriate orders.
Hence, this Court deem it appropriate to direct the
Trial Court to consider the application in I.A.No.2 within
one month from the date of receipt of this order and pass
orders.
Resultantly, the Miscellaneous First Appeal is
disposed off.
