The 4th plaintiff, who is residing in USA had executed a General Power

of attorney in favour of the 2nd plaintiff to sign, verify the affidavit and

Memorandum of Compromise in respect of the share of the 4th plaintiff in the

suit property. The General Power of Attorney executed by the 4th plaintiff has

been produced before this Court. The Memorandum of compromise has been

filed. When enquired, the parties signed the Memorandum of compromise

after accepting to its contents.

2. It is stated that the 2nd plaintiff has received money in view of the

shares for the plaintiffs to the tune of Rs.70,00,000/- as seen in the

3. Since the 2nd plaintiff has received the payment on behalf of all the

plaintiffs and the plaintiffs 3 & 4 do not deny the same, I feel the terms of

memorandum of compromise can be recorded. The 3 rd plaintiff, who is present

before this Court, has also stated that it is the 2nd plaintiff, who had received

the money on behalf of the plaintiffs 3 & 4. Hence, the terms of compromise

is recorded.

4. Accordingly, the Civil Suit in CS.No.454 of 2018 is decreed in terms

of compromise and the terms of compromise shall form part of the decree.
