E.S. Da Silva, J.1. Heard.2. I have gone through the impugned judgments of appellate Court and trial Court as well and also considered the submissions of the learned Counsel. The petitioners/applicants' claim for ownership and possession of the suit cafeteria has been disbelieved by the courts below after a fairly detailed scrutiny of the documentary evidence made available by the parties, namely, the fact that the same suggests that the registration certificate of the establishment is in the name of the respondent No. 5, the Municipal licence stands in the name of the respondent No. 1 and till the year 1984 the lease agreement of the premises continued in the name of the same respondent No. 1, while on the other hand, there is no document to show that the lease was at any time surrendered by the said respondent No. 1.3. Further from their own pleadings it is seen that the applicant No. 1 admits having conducted the business of the restaurant from 1983 to 1989 on behalf of the responde...
