OP (RC).No.4 OF 2021 2
JUDGMENT
Dated this the 8th day of January 2021
K. Vinod Chandran, J.
The petitioner is before us claiming that the delivery of the
tenanted premises is kept for today and he requires a stay of the
proceedings. Admittedly, the landlord had claimed for arrears of
rent under Section 12 of the Rent Control Act. There was no
objection filed nor were any amounts paid. The court issued
show cause under Section 12 (1) and there was no order passed
under Section 12(2) is the contention taken.
2. Admittedly there was an order issued under Section
12(1) to pay the admitted arrears or to show cause, which was
not complied with. An application filed by the tenant is seen,
from the impugned order, to have been rejected and no
extension of time for payment was sought for. Later, the Rent
Control Court passed Ext.P5 order directing the tenant to put
the landlord in possession of the petition schedule building
within one month from the date of the order. The said order was
passed on 25.03.2019; almost two years back in a Rent Control
Petition of the year 2015. E.P. was filed in 2019 itself and the
tenant appeared therein and participated in the proceedings.
3. The claim now raised by the tenant is that an appeal
is filed against Ext.P5 order, on 04.01.2021 and since it is
pending, the delivery may be stayed. The learned Counsel urged
that there is also a valid legal ground of the order under Section
12(2) having not been passed.
4. We are not inclined to entertain the O.P especially
noticing the fact that for two years the tenant had not chosen to
challenge Ext.P5 order. The tenant also had been participated in
the execution proceedings and only when the delivery
commenced, the tenant has thought it to file an appeal from the
order passed almost two years back. The appeal itself is grossly
delayed. We find no reason to exercise the revisional jurisdiction
and dismiss the original petition.
Registry shall communicate the dismissal of the case to the
concerned court, immediately.
