                                                                        C.R.P.Nos.2198 & 2199 of 2021

                                              COMMON ORDER

                                   C.R.P.No.2198 of 2021 and C.R.P.No.2199 of 2021 have been

                     filed seeking direction to the Learned Principal Sub Judge, Vridhachalam

                     2016 in O.S.No.123 of 2004.



                                   2.The Learned Counsel for the Petitioner submitted that the

                     Petitioner's husband Thiruvengadathayangaar filed Suit in O.S.No.123 of

                     2004 seeking the relief of declaration of title and for recovery of

                     possession, damages for use and occupation and for other reliefs. The

                     Suit was decreed on 10.02.2011. The Appeal filed against the Judgment

                     in A.S.No.69 of 2011 was also dismissed. Then the Petitioner filed

                     E.P.No.69 of 2016 along with E.A.No.342 of 2016 for recognizing her as

                     Legal Representative of the deceased Thiruvengadathayangaar and

                     continuing the execution proceedings. Similar application was filed for

                     2/5
                                                                          C.R.P.Nos.2198 & 2199 of 2021

                     impleading Legal Representative of the deceased First Respondent

                     Loganathan in E.A.No.343 of 2016.



                                   3.It is further submitted that both the Applications are kept

                     pending from the year 2016 without disposal. Therefore, these Petitions

                     are filed seeking direction to dispose these Applications within a time to

                     be fixed by this Court.



                                   4.It is evident from the narrations of sequence of events that

                     Suit was filed in the year 2004 for declaration of title, for recovery of

                     possession and for other reliefs.          The Suit was also decreed on

                     10.02.2011.       It appears that the original decree holder and the First

                     Respondent died.          Therefore, E.A.No.342 of 2016 was filed for

                     impleading the Legal Representative of the original decree holder and

                     E.A.No.343 of 2016 was filed for impleading the Legal Representative of

                     the deceased First Respondent.



                                   5.It is submitted that the Applications are pending for enquiry.

                     It is not known why these Applications are kept pending for five years

                     without passing orders. Therefore, the Learned Principal Sub Judge,

                     3/5
                                                                        C.R.P.Nos.2198 & 2199 of 2021

                     Vridhachalam is directed to dispose these Applications as expeditiously

                     as possible, preferably within a period of two months from the date of

                     receipt of a copy of this Order.



                                   6.Accordingly, these Civil Revision Petitions are allowed. No

                     costs.
