ORDER
Heard the learned counsel on either side.
2. The petitioner filed O.S.No.351 of 2021 against the fourth
respondent herein on the file of District Munsif Court, Melur. A Decree
was granted in favour of petitioner on 11.10.2017. Aggrieved by the
same, fourth respondent filed A.S.No.64 of 2019 on the file of Sub Court,
Melur, and the appeal was dismissed on 30.09.2019. Though the first
appellate Court gave its verdict against the fourth respondent wayback on
30.09.2019, still the counsel for the fourth respondent would make a
statement that the fourth respondent is taking steps to file second appeal.
The fact remains that as on date no second appeal has been filed.
3. Since, a decree obtained by the petitioner against the second
respondent is holdings good as on dates the judgment-debtor cannot be
permitted to act in defiance of the same. If the fourth respondent
breaches the Civil Court's Decree, certainly the respondent police are
obliged to intervene. Of course, the respondent police cannot be expected
to provide round the clock protection to the petitioner herein. But then,
if any complaint is received from the petitioner for breach of the Civil

Court's decree, the fourth respondent will act in accordance with law.
This Criminal Original Petition is allowed accordingly.
