Court: Chennai

Decided on: Mar-06-1991

Reported in: (1992)2MLJ111

ORDERSrinivasan, J.1. There is no merit in this civil revision petition. It arises out of the application filed by the petitioner herein to try the maintainability of the main application as a preliminary point. The main application R.C.O.P. No. 54 of 1989 filed by the respondent is for fixation of fair rent at Rs. 27,000 per month. That is being contested by the petitioner herein. The petitioner filed I.A. No. 89 of 1990 for deciding the question of maintainability as a preliminary point. The Rent Controller dismissed the application holding that the question of maintainability could be gone into only in the trial after the evidence is recorded.

One Jawahar caused obstruction on the ground that he had purchased the property from the judgment-debtor.
