After the evidence was led by the parties, the trial court came to the conclusion that the plaintiff had 1/4th share only in the suit property and, consequently, dismissed the suit filed by the plaintiff.

Aggrieved against the said dismissal, fiRs.appeal under Section 96 CPC was filed, wherein, during pendency of the appeal, the appellant-plaintiff sold his share indicating therein 2 that he had 1/4th share in the suit property.

The document was entertained by the fiRs.appellate court under Order XLI, Rule 27 CPC.

Relying on the said document and taking, inter alia, the same as his admission regarding 1/4th share, the fiRs.appellate court dismissed the fiRs.appeal.

I have heard learned counsel for the parties and perused the judgments passed by both the courts below.

Both the courts below have concurrently held against the appellant that he had 1/4th share only in the suit property and the plea regarding 1/3rd share has been negated.

Further, in view of the conduct of the plaintiff in selling his share in the suit property indicating the same to be 1/4th only clearly creates a estoppal against him and, consequently, the appellate court was justified in dismissing the appeal.

Accordingly, there is no substance in the second appeal and the same is, therefore, dismissed.

The stay application is also dismissed.

No costs.
