THE COURT DELIVERED THE FOLLOWING:
JUDGMENT
The appellant being aggrieved by the order on
I.A.Nos.1 and 2 dated 04.09.2021 passed by VII Additional
City Civil and Sessions Judge, (CCH-19), Bengaluru has
filed this appeal.
2. Brief facts leading to filing of this appeal are
that:
The appellant has filed a suit in O.S.No.5183/2020
seeking for the relief of perpetual injunction restraining the
respondent from interfering with the peaceful possession
and enjoyment of the suit schedule property. In the said
suit, the appellant has filed an application I.A.No.1 seeking
an order of temporary injunction over the suit schedule
property. The respondent has also filed I.A.No.2 seeking
an order of temporary injunction against the petitioner
from interfering with the peaceful possession and
enjoyment of site No.63. The trial Court after hearing the
parties, rejected the application I.A.No.1 filed by the
petitioner and allowed I.A.No.2 filed by the respondent.
Hence, the appellant has filed the present appeal
challenging the order passed in I.A.Nos.1 and 2.
3. Heard the learned counsel for the appellant
and also the learned counsel for the respondent.
4. Learned counsel for the appellant submits that
the petitioner has filed a suit in respect of site No.64 and
the respondent has filed an injunction application in
respect of site No.63, wherein the site No.63 is not the
subject matter of the suit schedule property. He further
submits that the cause of action for filing I.A.No.2 is
different and it is not arising out of the same cause of
action. He has placed the reliance on the judgment of Full
Court Bench in case of Smt. Shakuntalamma and
others Vs Smt. Kanthamma and others reported in ILR
2014 KAR 6025, wherein he submits that the application
filed by the respondent is not maintainable. The trial Court
without considering the said aspect, has proceeded to pass
the impugned order. He further submits that the impugned
order passed by the trial Court is not a speaking order. No
reasons has been assigned by the trial Court. Hence, on
these grounds, he prays to allow the appeal and seeks for
reconsideration of the said application.
5. Per contra, the learned counsel for the
respondent fairly concede that the trial Court has not
assigned any reasons in the impugned order. Hence, he
submits that he has no objection to remit the matter back
to the trial Court for reconsideration of I.A.Nos.1 and 2.
6. Heard and perused the records and considered
the submissions of the learned counsel for the parties.
7. The appellant has filed a suit in
O.S.No.5183/2020 and in the said suit, the appellant has
filed I.A.No.1 seeking for grant of perpetual injunction
against the respondent. The trial Court has rejected the
said application vide order dated 15.01.2021. Being
aggrieved by the said order, the appellant has filed an
appeal in M.F.A.No.521/2021. This Court vide order dated
23.03.2021, allowed the appeal and remitted the matter to
the trial Court to reconsider I.A.Nos.1 and 2 afresh and
pass an appropriate order in accordance with law, by
assigning the reasons. From the perusal of the impugned
order, the contentions which have been raised by the
appellant have not been considered by the trial Court with
regard to the maintainability of the application filed by the
respondent and also in regard to the judgment cited by the
learned counsel for the appellant before the trial Court.
Without assigning any reasons has passed the impugned
order. This Court without discussing anything on the merits
of the issue, this Court feels that the matter is required to
be reconsider by the trial Court. In view of the above and
also the submission made by the learned counsel for the
parties, I proceed to pass the following:
ORDER
1. Writ petition is allowed;
2. The impugned order dated 04.09.2021
passed by the VII Additional City Civil and
Sessions Judge, (CCH-19), Bengaluru is
set aside and quashed.
The trial Court is directed to reconsider I.A.Nos.1
and 2 afresh and pass an appropriate order in accordance
with law, by assigning the reasons and also contentions
raised by both the parties.
Earlier this Court had directed both the parties to
maintain status-quo regarding possession, nature and
character of the suit schedule property till the disposal of
I.A.Nos.1 and 2. In view of the same, both the parties are
directed to maintain status-quo in regard to title,
possession nature and character of the suit schedule
property till the disposal of the I.A.Nos.1 and 2.
This Court has not made any adjudication of the
matter on merits in issue.
All the contentions of the parties are kept open.
