3. Already another Civil Revision Petition in C.R.P(MD)No.2517

of 2022 has been filed by the petitioners herein wherein, an order came

to be passed on 15.03.2023.

https://www.mhc.tn.gov.in/judis

C.R.P(MD)No.872 of 2023

4. The case of the petitioner appears to be that the

respondents/plaintiffs have no rights to file a suit as the issue has

attained finality by a judgment and decree of this Court in S.A.(MD)Nos.

1618 and 1619 of 1992, dated 23.07.2008. Merely, aforesaid judgment

and decree states that there shall be a preliminary decree for partition and

that the first respondent, who is the plaintiff therein is entitled to 50% of

the share and legal representations of the fifth respondent therein is

entitled to ½ share in Schedule A and B property. The relevant portion of

the aforesaid order reads as under:

"24. The decree of the Court below is modified as follows:

"There shall be a preliminary decree for partition. The plaintiff in O.S.No.56 of 1988, the daughter of Masi Ambalam and the fifth defendant Lakshmi shall be entitled to half share each in 'A' schedule property and half share each in half of 'B' schedule property."

5. Therefore, the issue has to whether the petitioners are entitled to

inherit the rights on account of the death of his mother is to be decided in

the light of the above observations. This Court has not come to the

conclusion that the petitioners are the legal representatives. Therefore,

there is no merit in the civil revision petition as ordered in C.R.P.2571 of

https://www.mhc.tn.gov.in/judis

C.R.P(MD)No.872 of 2023

2022. The Trial Court is directed to expedite the trial in O.S.No.114 of

2018.

6. The present Civil Revision Petition stands dismissed with the

above observations. No costs. Consequently, connected miscellaneous

petition is closed.
