Ist Additional District Court, Tirunelveli.

Compromise Memo filed by both the parties.

http://www.judis.nic.in

3.The suit is filed by the first respondent herein/Plaintiff for

the relief of specific performance. The said suit was decreed as

prayed for by the Plaintiff. Aggrieved over the same, defendants 2

and 3 have filed the present Appeal Suit before this Court.

4.When the matter is taken up for hearing today, it is stated

by the learned counsel appearing on either side that both the

parties have entered into a compromise. The first

defendant/Rajamani(deceased) was the original owner of the

property, had entered into an agreement with one

Selvaraj/Plaintiff/first respondent herein. In the meanwhile, the

said Rajamani sold the property to the defendants 2 and 3. A Joint

Compromise Memo has been entered into between

Selvaraj/Plaintiff and the defendants 2 and 3. The owner of the

property namely, Rajamani reported dead on 20.07.2011 and his

legal heirs/respondents 2 to 8 are impleaded as respondents 2 to 8

in the Appeal Suit. The said Rajamani had already sold the

property. He has got no right or title to the suit property. Therefore

the first appellant has given up the respondents 2 to 8 in the main

Appeal Suit and also filed a Joint Compromise Memo,dated

24.02.2021. Both the appellants as well as the first respondent

herein have appeared before this Court in person and have signed

the Joint Compromise Memo, dated 24.02.2021. Both the parties

http://www.judis.nic.in

have accepted the terms of the Joint Compromise. The terms of the

Joint Compromise filed by both the parties, reads as follows:

TERMS OF COMPROMISE

''1.The judgment and decree of the trial Court

in O.S.No.30 of 2007, on the file of the Ist Additional

District Court, Tirunelveli may be confirmed in

respect of execution of sale deed in favour of

Mr.G.Selvaraj/Plaintiff and the trial Court may be

directed to execute the sale deed within a time frame.

2.The Judgment and decree of the trial Court in

O.S.No.30 of 2007 on the file of Ist Additional District

Court, Tirunelveli may be modified in respect of

withdrawal of the deposited amount along with

interest and since Mr.V.Rajamani had already

received the sale consideration from Smt.Veronica

Jeyaraj and Rose Mary Educational Society, therefore

this Honourable Court may permit the appellants

herein to withdraw the deposited amount along with

interest, for which, the Plaintiff Mr.G.Selvaraj has no

objection.''

5.The above Joint Compromise Memo is taken on file. In view

of the above, the Appeal Suit is disposed of in terms of the Joint

Compromise Memo. The Joint Compromise Memo shall form part
