                                               COMMON JUDGMENT

                                  The learned counsel appearing for the appellants submitted that the suit

                 in O.S.No.17 of 1998 has been filed against the defendants for declaration that the

                 suit properties belonging to the plaintiffs and the fourth defendant and not to take

                 any coercive action subsequent to the order passed by the District Munsif Court,

                 Srivilliputhur in R.C.O.P.No.7 of 1982. The suit was decreed. Subsequently, in

                 the appeal suit in A.S.No.41 of 2000, it was reversed.



                                  2. The second respondent in the appeal filed a petition in R.C.O.P.No.10

                 of 1984 before the Principal District Munsif, Srivilliputhur for eviction and the

                 same was dismissed. Aggrieved over the same, he filed an appeal in R.C.A.No.4

                 of 1994 before the Principal Subordinate Judge, Srivilliputhur and the same was

                 also dismissed. Challenging the same, the present Civil Revision Petition has

                 been filed by the petitioner in R.C.O.P.No.10 of 1984.



                                  3. Under such circumstances, the learned counsel for the appellants in

                 the second appeal submitted that the possession of the property was already been

                                                               S.A.No.1073 of 2001 and C.R.P.No.1501 of 1998

                 handed over to the second respondent in the second appeal and the petitioner in

                 the revision petition and the appellants did not want to prosecute the appeal and

                 requested to close the second appeal. In this regard, he has received a letter from

                 the client undated and filed a memo dated 12.09.2023. The learned counsel for the

                 respondents also filed a memo dated 17.07.2023, stating that the first respondent

                 in the appeal is not responded. Therefore, he reported no instruction. It appears

                 that the possession was handed over to the petitioner in the revision petition and

                 this may be the reason for his non appearance.



                                  4. In the result, both the Second Appeal as well as the Civil Revision

                 Petition are dismissed for non- prosecution. No costs.


                                                                                               19.09.2023
