2. The revision petitioner is the plaintiff. He filed a suit for
partition as against the respondent in respect of the suit properties. By
the Judgment and Decree dated 18.04.2015 except “B” Schedule
property other properties were partitioned and decreed in favour of the
petitioner/plaintiff and the respondent.
3. Aggrieved by the said order, the respondent filed an Appeal
Suit against the decree of the partition suit as against the 'A', 'B' 'C' and
'D' schedule properties. Pending Appeal Suit, the petitioner/plaintiff also
filed a cross-objection in respect of 'B' Schedule property and the
respondent filed a petition to amend the plaint by including one more
property for partition.
4. A perusal of the affidavit filed in support of the petition to
amend the plaint, the property bearing Door No.D-42 in R.S.No.1255/2
situated at Kollampalayam, Erode was alloted by the Tamil Nadu
Housing Board in favour of the petitioner and the respondent father viz.,
Muthusamy. The said Muthusamy entered into an agreement of sale in
the said property with his sister son's wife. Thereafter, he also executed a

Power of Attorney in respect of the said property in favour of his sister's
son. Thereafter he died. Though, the amendment is sought for in the
Appeal Suit, the suit is filed for partition and as such the Appeal Suit is
also only a continuation of suit proceedings and the amendment can be
allowed even in the lost appeal. Though, the said property is not
registered in favour of said Muthusamy, it was allotted in his favour and
the Power of Attorney executed by him also expires. Therefore, the Court
below rightly allowed this petition and included the said property in the
plaint for partition.
5. This Court finds no illegality or infirmity in the order passed
by the Court below. Accordingly, this Civil Revision Petition stands
dismissed. There shall be no order as to costs. Consequently, connected
Civil Miscellaneous Petition is closed.
