                   PRAYER: Second Appeal filed under Section 100 of the Civil Procedure
                   Code, against the judgment and decree of the lower appellate Court dated
                   04.03.2011 passed in A.S.No.23 of 2010 on the file of the Subordinate
                   Court, Kovilpatti, partly reversing the judgment and decree of the trial
                   Court dated 17.12.2009 passed in O.S.No.28 of 2008 on the file of the
                   District Munsif Court, Kovilpatti.


                                        For Appellants       : Mr.M.Muthugeethayan
                                        For Respondents      : Mr.A.Kuttijegan


                                                    JUDGMENT

This second appeal arises out of partition suit. O.S.No.28 of 2008

was filed by one Chellathurai on the file of the District Munsif Court,

Kovilpatti seeking partition and separate possession of 1/2 share in the suit

properties.

2.During the pendency of the suit, he passed away and his legal

representatives came on record. By judgment and decree dated 17.12.2009,

the suit was dismissed. Aggrieved by the same, the plaintiff filed A.S.No.

23 of 2010 before the Sub Court, Kovilpatti. By judgment and decree dated

04.03.2011, the first appellate Court allowed the appeal. Challenging the

same, this second appeal came to be filed by the defendants 1 to 7.

S.A(MD)No.601 of 2011

3. During the pendency of the second appeal, the dispute has been

amicably resolved. A joint memo of compromise has already been filed

before this Court. It is stated that the first appellant Vasantha is in hospital.

The 5th appellant Gopalakrishnan is working in Border Security Force.

Therefore, they are unable to be present. The other appellants are present

before me. They have been duly identified by their counsel. Likewise, the

respondents 2 to 5 are also present before me. They have been duly

identified by their counsel.

4. I am satisfied that the issue has been amicably resolved. The

judgment and decree passed by the trial Court is set aside and this second

appeal is disposed of in terms of the joint memo of compromise. The joint

memo of compromise dated 12.08.2021 shall form part of the decree. No

costs.
