        THIS    OP   (CIVIL)    HAVING   COME   UP    FOR    ADMISSION   ON

FOLLOWING:
 OP(C) No.157 of 2022
                                   2




                            JUDGMENT

The original petitioners, who are

defendants in O.S.No.371/2020 on the file of

the Munsiff Court, Muvattupuzha, have filed

this Original Petition under the Article 227

of the Constitution of India, being aggrieved

by Ext.P7 order (Order in I.A.No.05/2021 dated

02.02.2021).

2. In this case, after filing one

commissioner by Adv.Cibison Jose, an

application was filed by the defendants to

appoint another commissioner. The court below

appointed the same commissioner to note out

the matters sought for by the petitioners

herein. In this context, the petitioners filed

I.A. No.5/2021 to appoint any other advocate

other than Adv.Cibison Jose on the ground that

in the earlier report Adv.Cibison Jose

reported wrong facts before the court. OP(C) No.157 of 2022

3. Heard the learned counsel for the

petitioners. The learned counsel pressed for

relief on the submission that if Adv.Cibison

Jose prepare the second report the same also

may be incorrect.

4. Going by the impugned order, it

appears that Adv.Cibison Jose was appointed as

commissioner at the instance of the plaintiffs

in the above suit and he had filed a report

and mahazar. So the course of action available

to the defendants, if they were aggrieved by

the finding of the commissioner is to file

objection and challenge the commission report

by examining the commissioner. Instead of

doing so, another application was filed by the

defendants to appoint another commissioner and

the court below appointed the same

commissioner. No doubt, appointment of

different persons as commissioners would

result in getting contrary reports and such a OP(C) No.157 of 2022

course of action cannot be permitted in a

routine manner.

In view of the matter, the order impugned

is found to be in order. Therefore, there is

no reason to interfere with, on finding

perversity or arbitrariness.

In the result, this original petition

fails and is accordingly dismissed.
