JUDGMENT
(Judgment of the Court was delivered by R.SURESH KUMAR, J.)
This Appeal Suit is filed against the judgment and decree made in
O.S.No.59 of 2012, dated 13.09.2019 on the file of the learned Principal
District Judge, Dindigul.
2.During the pendency of this Appeal Suit, the parties since
expressed their willingness to compromise themselves and to come forward
a negotiated settlement, it had been referred to mediation and in the
mediation both the parties had come forward to settle the issue amicably.
Therefore, a settlement / agreement had been reached between both sides,
followed by a joint compromise memo had also been prepared and signed
by both the parties.
3.According to the said compromise memo, the first schedule
properties would be allotted to the appellants / plaintiffs 2 to 5, who are the
legal heirs of the 1st plaintiff. The second schedule properties would be

allotted to the respondents / defendants 2 to 4, who are the legal heirs of the
1st defendant. The parties signed in the compromise memo. Insofar as the
property in Patta No.1085 for Survey No.91/1E1, Kallipatti Majara,
Chettinaickenpatti Village, Dindigul District and Taluk is concerned, it has
been converted into approved plots and the parties had already jointly sold
some plots. Out of the unsold plots, the appellants will get Plot No.15
measuring into 2400 sq.ft., and the respondents will get the existing house
in Kallipatti Post, Chettinayakkanpatti Village, Dindigul District.
4.These properties are not form part of either the first schedule or
the second schedule. That is how the parties have agreed to settle the issue
by having peaceful partition and the properties were also accordingly
allotted. Therefore, they seek for judgment and decree in this Appeal Suit
even by way of final decree.
5.The parties on both sides ie., the four legal heirs signed on
behalf of the 1st plaintiff and the three legal heirs signed on behalf of the 1st
defendant appeared before this Court and confirmed the said agreement and
settlement.
