THIS OP (CIVIL) HAVING BEEN FINALLY HEARD ON 12.01.2021, THE
COURT ON THE SAME DAY DELIVERED THE FOLLOWING:
OP(C).No.368 OF 2020 2
JUDGMENT
The petitioners/plaintiffs being aggrieved by
Exts.P7 and P8 orders passed by the courts below
have filed this O.P invoking Article 227 of the
Constitution of India.
2. Plaint A and B schedule properties in
O.S.No.330 of 2018 pending before the Munsiff's
Court, Perumbavoor were claimed by plaintiffs to
be in their possession. Plaintiffs sought for a
decree for permanent prohibitory injunction
restraining the defendants/respondents herein
from interfering with operation of crusher unit
in plaint A schedule and from trespassing upon
plaint B schedule and also deterring operation
of petrol pump. The respondents denied
possession and contended that the suit was filed
by the plaintiffs suppressing material facts.
3. Looking at Exts.P7 and P8 orders, it is
seen that both courts below went into the
disputed possession and found that the
plaintiffs failed to make out a prima facie
case. It was also held that the material facts
as to possession were suppressed by the
plaintiffs.
4. After hearing the learned counsel
appearing on both sides for some time, I am
satisfied that there is nothing which justifies
interference with the concurrent finding of the
courts below as to prima facie case in favour of
the respondents. However, I make it clear that
the finding as to possession cannot be
acknowledged as conclusive in as much as it was
rendered in the context of examining the
existence of prima facie case which is the sole
criterian for deciding a petition filed under
Order 39 Rule 1 of the C.P.C.
In the result, this OP(C) fails and it is
dismissed. It is directed that the court below
shall dispose of O.S.330 of 2018 as
expeditiously as possible, untrammelled by the
findings as to possession in the impugned orders
challenged in this O.P.
