              Dated this the 16th day of October, 2023


                                   ORDER

P.B.Suresh Kumar, J.

One of the legal representatives of the deceased

tenant in a proceedings for eviction under the Kerala Buildings

(Lease and Rent Control) Act, (the Act) has instituted this

revision challenging the concurrent orders of eviction suffered

by him.

2. On 08.09.2023, when the matter came up for

admission, we passed the following order.

"After arguing the matter on merits for quite some time, having convinced that the arguments advanced on behalf of the petitioner are not acceptable to the Court, the learned counsel for the petitioner alternatively prayed for a reasonable time to surrender vacant possession of the premises.

In the light of the alternative plea aforesaid made by the learned counsel for the petitioner, registry is directed to issue notice before admission to the first respondent by special messenger. Notice to the remaining respondents is dispensed with for the time being.

List the matter on 13.09.2023."

In the meanwhile, if the petitioner has not already been evicted, further proceedings in execution of the impugned order of eviction shall be deferred till 13.09.2023."

Later, when the matter came up for orders on 15.09.2023, we

have directed the registry to list the matter for hearing, in the

light of the developments stated therein. The said order reads

thus:

"When this matter was taken up today, it was reported by the learned counsel for the respondents that pursuant to the decision impugned in the revision petition, the tenanted premises which is the subject matter of the proceedings has been delivered over to the respondents on 22.08.2023 itself and the revision petition has been filed long thereafter. A copy of the kychit evidencing delivery of the premises on 22.08.2023 is also made available.

The submission made by the learned counsel for the respondents is recorded and the registry is directed to list the revision petition for hearing after two weeks."

Today, when the matter was taken up, the learned counsel for

the petitioner submitted that the petitioner does not wish to

pursue the rent control revision any more.

In the light of the submission made by the learned

counsel for the petitioner, the rent control revision is closed.
