Thereafter, the case was transferred to the II Additional City Civil Court, Chennai, in the year 2021 and re-numbered as O.S.No.2739 of 2021. 2. The plaintiff filed an amendment application in O.S.No.2739 of 2021 seeking a declaration of title by enhancing the value of the property. The said application was allowed, and consequently, the suit was returned for re-presentation before this Court on the ground of pecuniary jurisdiction. Accordingly, the plaint was re-presented before this Court in April 2025. 3. During the pendency of the suit, the first plaintiff passed away in May 2025. Hence, the present applications have been filed. Since the plaint has not been numbered so far, the learned counsel for the applicants seeks liberty from this Court to withdraw these applications in order to include the legal heirs of the deceased plaintiff in the main suit. 3/5 https://www.mhc.tn.gov.in/judis A.Nos. 5027 & 5028 of 2025 4.
