Court: Chennai

Decided on: Jul-19-1988

Reported in: AIR1989Mad139

ORDERSrinivasan, J.1. This revision petition is against an order passed on 26-5-1-988 by the Vacation Civil Judge in I.A. 697 of 1988. It is, no doubt, an ad interim ex parte order and a revision petition is not ordinarily maintainable in this court. Normally, this court does not entertain a revision petition against an ad interim injunction, when the court below has passed the same and has ordered notice to the other side. The normal course open to the opposite party in such a case is to approach the same court for vacating the injuction order or passing appropriate order as laid down by a Division Bench of this court in Abdul Shukoor Sahib v. Umachandran AIR 1976 Mad 350.2. However, learned counsel for the petitioner points out that the order of interim injunction made by the trial court in this case is in complete violation of the provisions of Order XXXIX Rule3, C.P.C. When the Civil Procedure Code was amended in 1976 by Act 104 of 1976, a proviso was introduced in Order XXXIX Rule...
