THIS OP (CIVIL) HAVING COME UP FOR ADMISSION ON 14.06.2022,
THE COURT ON THE SAME DAY DELIVERED THE FOLLOWING:
O.P (C) NO. 1016 OF 2022 2
Dated this the 14th day of June, 2022
JUDGMENT
The original petition is filed to set aside Exhibit P5
sale certificate issued in favour of the respondent and for
other ancillary reliefs.
2. The petitioners' case in brief, in the memorandum
of the original petition, is that, they were the defendants
in O.S. No.702/2005 on the file of the II Additional
Subordinate Judge's Court, Thrissur, which was filed by
the respondent, seeking a decree for recovery of money.
The suit was decreed as per Exhibit P1, permitting the
respondent to realise from the petitioners an amount of
Rs.1,38,800/- with interest and cost. Subsequent to the
decree, the original defendant died and the petitioners
were impleaded as the legal representatives of the
original defendant. The petitioners had failed to pay the
decree debt. The respondent had filed E.P No.310/2012
and proceeded against the immovable property of the
petitioners. Pursuant to the application filed by the
respondent, the execution court by Exhibit P2 order,
ordered the delivery of the properties of the petitioners.
The petitioners challenged the said order before this
Court by filing OP(C) No.1774/2017. This Court, by
Exhibit P3 judgment, allowed the original petition by
permitting the petitioners to pay off the decree debt in
installments. The petitioners have paid the entire amount
to the respondent as evidenced by Exhibit P4 letter issued
by the respondent. However, during the interregnum, the
execution court had issued Exhibit P5 sale certificate in
favour of the respondent, which is reflected in the
encumbrance certificate of the petitioners property. As
the time period to set aside the sale is over, the
petitioners are left remediless. Hence, the original
petition.
3. Heard, Sri.Sreejith, the learned counsel appearing
for the petitioners and Sri. Rockson Paul, the learned
counsel appearing for the respondent.
4. The respondent has by Exhibit P4 certificate
admitted the receipt of the entire decree debt in the
execution proceeding. Nonetheless, before the passing
of Exhibit P3 judgment by this Court, the Execution Court
had issued the sale certificate in favour of the
respondent. Now, as the time period prescribed to set
aside the sale has lapsed, the petitioners have no other
efficacious remedy in law to set aside Exhibit P5.
5. On an overall consideration of the pleadings and
materials on record and the submissions made across the
bar, I am satisfied that the original petition is to be
allowed by setting aside Exhibit P5.
In the result, in exercise of the supervisory powers
of this Court under Article 227 of the Constitution of
India, I allow the original petition by setting aside Exhibit
P5 sale certificate issued in favour of the respondent.
The Execution Court shall duly communicate this
judgment to the Sub Registry Office, Kuttanalloor and
order the cancellation of the encumbrance reflected over
the execution schedule property.
The original petition is ordered accordingly.
