[Judgment of the Court was delivered by PUSHPA SATHYANARAYANA, J.]

This Writ Appeal is directed against the order of the learned Single

Judge dated 11.06.2021 made in W.P.No.10129 of 2016, wherein, the writ

petitioner sought for a direction to respondents 2 to 4 to return her jewels,

which were placed against the jewel loan A/c.No.233135193 dated 19.02.2013

on payment of balance of the principal amount along with interest till date.

W.A.No.2449 of 2021

2. The only ground raised by the appellant/writ petitioner is that there

was no notice before the jewels were sold by the respondents. While disposing

the said writ petition, the learned Single Judge had found that there was no

auction notice published in “Malai Malar” dated 12.07.2014 by the respondents

intimating about the auction to be held on 17.07.2014, though the actual auction

was conducted only on 26.07.2014. Now, the appellant /writ petitioner disputes

the number of jewels or even the weight in terms of grams of jewels. The

learned Single Judge also held that these disputed question of facts, cannot be

decided by this Court under Article 226 of the Constitution of India and granted

liberty to the writ petitioner to approach the District Registrar of Co-operative

Societies (Credit), Chennai – 108 by filing suitable application under Section

90 of the Tamil Nadu Co-operative Societies Act, 1988 within a period of 30

days from the date of receipt of a copy of that order.

3. The learned counsel appearing for the appellant agreed that the

appellant can agitate the dispute before the District Registrar of Co-operative

Societies (Credit), Chennai – 108.

4. Accordingly, the said liberty granted by the learned Single Judge

in paragraph 16 of the order dated 11.06.2021 made in W.P.No.10129 of 2016, https://www.mhc.tn.gov.in/judis/

W.A.No.2449 of 2021

is confirmed and the writ appeal is disposed of. It is made clear that 30 days

period would operate from the the date of receipt of a copy of this judgment.

No costs.
