JUDGMENT
This appeal is filed by the plaintiffs under Order 43
Rule 1(r) of CPC, challenging the order dated 15.07.2023
passed by the Prl. Senior Civil Judge & JMFC, Devanahalli
in O.S.No.1406/2022, whereby IA No.2 filed by the
plaintiffs under Order 39 Rules 1 and 2 of CPC has been
dismissed.
2. For the sake of convenience, parties are referred
to as per their ranking before the trial court.
3. The plaintiffs filed a suit for declaration and
injunction in respect of suit schedule property measuring 1
acre 11 guntas. Along with the plaint, they filed IA No.2
under Order 39 Rules 1 and 2 of CPC seeking injunction
restraining defendant No.4 from alienating, creating
charge in respect of suit schedule property in Sy.No.14/3
measuring 1 acre 11 guntas in Bommavara Village. After
service of summons, defendant No.4 appeared through
counsel. After hearing the parties, the trial court
dismissed IA No.2 filed by the plaintiffs under Order 39
NC: 2023:KHC:46778
Rules 1 and 2 of CPC. Being aggrieved by the same, plaintiffs
have filed this appeal.
4. The learned counsel appearing for
respondent/defendant No.4 submits that out of 1 acre 11
guntas, defendant No.4 has already entered into sale
agreement in respect of 11 guntas.
5. Now the suit is set down for the evidence of the
parties. Under this circumstance, the only relief that can be
granted in this appeal is to restrain defendant No.4 from
alienating or creating third party interest in respect of 1 acre of
the suit schedule property.
6. Accordingly, I pass the following order:
(i) The appeal is disposed of.
(ii)* The plaintiff is restrained from interfering into
the 1 acre of the suit schedule property. The defendant
No.4 is directed not to alienate or create any third party
interest in respect of 1 acre of the suit schedule property.
(iii) In respect of 11 guntas of the suit
schedule property, which is alienated by defendant
* Inserted vide Court order dated: 17.01.2024
NC: 2023:KHC:46778
No.4 is concerned, the same is subject to the result
of the suit.
(iv) The trial court is directed to dispose of the
suit as expeditiously as possible, not later than eight
months from the date of receipt of a copy of this
order.
(iv) Both the parties are directed to co-operate
for speedy disposal of the suit.
