     THIS OP (CIVIL) HAVING COME UP FOR ADMISSION ON 13.06.2023,
THE COURT ON THE SAME DAY DELIVERED THE FOLLOWING:
 OP(C) NO. 682 OF 2021

                                     2


                                  JUDGMENT

Ext.P12 order is under challenge on the reason

that the suit instituted by the plaintiff is one for

injunction simplicitor, wherein the defendants raised a

counter claim for a counter injunction. Both the suit

and the counter claim are for injunction simplicitor,

wherein there is no scope for issuing a survey

commission. It is for that purpose, an application was

submitted by the defendants for appointment of a survey

commission to measure out and locate the property. In

fact, since it is for injunction simplicitor, no survey

commission can be issued. Ext.P12 order hence suffers

defects in the exercise of jurisdiction and is liable

to be rectified under Article 227 of the Constitution

and the order will stand set aside. The commission

application will stand dismissed.

The O.P.(C) will stand allowed accordingly.
