ORAL JUDGMENT
The defendants being aggrieved by the order dated 29.01.2025 passed on I.A.No.1 filed under Order XXXIX Rules 1 and 2 r/w Section 151 of CPC in O.S.No.6517/2018 by XXXI Addl. City Civil and Sessions Judge, Bengaluru (CCH-14), thereby, the application filed for temporary injunction is allowed.
2. It is the case of the plaintiff that the plaintiff is the owner in possession of the suit property by virtue of registered General Power of Attorney dated 09.01.1997 and thereafter, obtained katha in his favour and paying taxes and betterment charges and further he obtained electricity and water connections to the suit property. Thus, in this way, the plaintiff is claiming title over the suit property.
3. Here the defendants have stated that the defendants had purchased the suit property through HMT Employees Co-operative House Building Society, whereas

the plaintiff’s claim is through General Power of Attorney. In this regard, the plaintiff has not produced any document to show that his site is formed in the left out land. Therefore, the identity of the property by the plaintiff is in question.
4. Therefore, in this regard, when the defendants’ title is appearing through registered sale deed, therefore, the trial Court is correct in forming opinion that the plaintiff has formed prima facie case. Accordingly, the
order of temporary injunction granted by the trial Court is found to be correct. Therefore, the appeal filed by the defendants is liable to be disposed of.
5. Admittedly, the suit property is a vacant site. Therefore, it is appropriate to give direction to both the parties to maintain status-quo pending disposal of the suit in regard to possession as on today and status-quo order is also to the effect not to change the nature of land till the disposal of the suit. However, it is directed to the trial

Court to expedite the trial and dispose of the case as expeditiously as possible.
6. With this observation, the appeal is disposed of. In view of disposal of the main appeal, I.A.No.1/2025 does not survive for consideration and it is dismissed.
