2.Initially, the suit was filed for partition and the same came to be

dismissed, against which, the present appeal suit has been preferred.

themselves, which is reduced into a joint Memo of Compromise. The

appellants 1 to 5 and the respondent appeared before this Court and they

were identified by their respective counsel. The terms of the joint Memo

of Compromise are as follows:

“A. The appellants 1 to 3 and late one Neela, mother of appellants 4 and 5 are daughters of R.Govindasamy who died on 12.05.2005. Appellants herein filed a suit for partition and separate possession of 4/5th share in the 7 items of suit properties left by their father Govindasamy.

The sole respondent disputed the ancestral nature of suit properties. After contest, the trial court passed a decree granting 4/10th share in suit items 1 to 6 and dismissed appellant's claim regarding suit item

B. Now both the appellants 1 to 5 and the respondent herein have settled their claims and

3.The appellants 1 to 5 give up their claim regarding item 7 of suit properties and accordingly this appeal may be dismissed regarding item 7 of suit properties.
