THIS SECOND APPEAL HAVING BEEN FINALLY HEARD ON 21.06.2023, THE COURT ON THE SAME DAY DELIVERED THE FOLLOWING:
JUDGMENT
The appellant is the additional 2nd defendant in O.S.No.156
of 1991 on the file of the Munsiff’s Court, Sasthamcotta, which was one filed by the original plaintiff, the deceased father of respondents 1 to 3 herein, for eviction and injunction. The said suit was decreed in part by the judgment and decree dated 08.04.1994, whereby the plaintiff was allowed to remove the remaining articles kept in the plaint schedule property. The defendants were directed to pay Rs.15,000/- to the plaintiff as damages. If the amount is paid within three months from the date
of the decree, the defendants can occupy the building. Challenging the said judgment and decree, the plaintiff filed A.S.No.133 of 1994 before the District Court, Kollam, seeking restoration of the possession of the plaint schedule shop room, after evicting the 2nd defendant who took forcible possession of the plaint schedule building. The said appeal was allowed by the
judgment dated 28.01.2002. Aggrieved by the said judgment, the
appellant is before this Court in this appeal, invoking the provisions under Section 100 of the Code of Civil Procedure, 1908.
2. On 07.11.2002, when this appeal came up for admission, this Court issued notice on the substantial question of law formulated in the memorandum of Second Appeal.
3. Service of notice is not complete on additional respondents 5 to 8 sought to be impleaded.
4. Today, when this matter is taken up for consideration,
the learned counsel for the appellant would submit that the appellant does not want to prosecute this appeal further and therefore, the same may be dismissed as withdrawn. Recording the aforesaid submission made by the learned counsel for the appellant, this appeal is dismissed as withdrawn. Sd/- ANIL K. NARENDRAN, JUDGE AV/22/6
