2. The petitioner was one of the partner in the partnership firm

namely 'Anchor Systems'. A suit was filed against the petitioner showing the

petitioner as the second defendant and the petitioner's property alone was attached

under 'Attachment Before Judgement' by order dated 05.02.2008. However, the

suit has ended against the petitioner. The suit was decreed in favour of the

plaintiff against which the petitioner preferred an appeal and the same was

dismissed confirming the suit decree and judgment. The second appeal which was

filed against the appeal was also dismissed confirming the decree and judgement.

The petitioner has challenged the 'Attachment Before Judgement' order dated

05.02.2008 in CRP(NPD)(MD).No.230 of 2008 and the same was set aside by

this Court vide order dated 03.07.2009.

3. Since there is no 'Attachment Before Judgement' in the suit, the

petitioner is seeking to register the sale deed now. The plaintiff in the suit has not

filed any execution petition and the whereabouts of the plaintiff was also not

known. Moreover, it is seen that the limitation time has also crossed. Therefore,

this Court direct the respondent to register the sale deed as a contra entry and

release the document. The said exercises shall be completed within a period of

four weeks from the date of receipt of a copy of this order.
