CITY CIVIL JUDGE AT BENGALURU, VIDE ANNEXURE-A AND ETC. THIS PETITION, COMING ON FOR PRELIMINARY HEARING 'B' GROUP, THIS DAY, ORDER WAS MADE THEREIN AS UNDER: CORAM: HON'BLE MR JUSTICE M.G.S. KAMAL ORAL ORDER 1. Heard learned counsel for the parties and perused the records. 2. A suit in O.S.No.800/2006 has been filed by plaintiffs/respondents 1 to 4 herein for partition and separate possession of suit schedule properties against defendants 1 to 6. Said suit has been decreed on 22.07.2016 holding that the plaintiff and defendants 1 to 6 are having shares in the suit schedule properties. Final Decree Proceedings in FDP No.117/2016 has been initiated. Petitioner herein is defendant No.7(a) in the said suit, who purchased item No.1 of the suit - 5 - NC: 2025:KHC:9677 WP No. 5200 of 2020 schedule properties being site bearing Corporation No.1 (old No.2), situated at 7th Cross, 2nd Main, Shivanahalli, measuring east to west 43 feet and north to south 38 feet, in terms of the sale deed dated 12.04.2007, from Smt. Hombalamma, Sri. Shivananjappa and Smt. Dhakshayani who are defendant Nos.4 to 6. The said sale deed is executed during the pendency of the above Suit. 3. Petitioner herein filed objections seeking to exclude the property purchased by him in Final Decree Proceedings. The said objection has not been considered by the trial Court. Aggrieved by the same, petitioner is before this Court. 4. Learned counsel for the petitioner submits that since the deed of sale of the petitioner herein has been held to be not binding on the plaintiffs only to the extent of their share, petitioner's right with regard to remaining extent, remains intact which aspect of the matter is not considered by the trial Court. 5. Learned counsel for the plaintiffs/respondent Nos.1 to 4 on the other hand submits that if the petitioner can quantify the value of the share of the plaintiffs in item No.1, as per the - 6 - NC: 2025:KHC:9677 WP No. 5200 of 2020 present market value, and the petitioner/defendant No.7(a) is willing to pay the same, plaintiffs/respondents 1 to 4 will have no objection to exclude said item No.1 of the suit properties from the Final Decree Proceedings. 6. Learned counsel for the parties further jointly submit that a direction may be issued to the trial Court to consider the above proposal and pass appropriate orders before auctioning the properties. Submission is taken on record. 7. Accordingly, the Writ Petition is partly allowed. The order dated 24.04.2019, rejecting the objections filed in FDP No.117/2016 is hereby set aside. The Executing Court shall consider the request of the plaintiffs to quantify their share and direct the petitioner herein who is the purchaser of suit item No.1 property to make the payment accordingly, or such payment as may be agreed to between the parties. 8. The said property be excluded from the auction process so that interest of the parties would be safeguarded. 9. If there is any other claim by any other parties, the same shall also be considered by the Executing Court. - 7 - NC: 2025:KHC:9677 WP No. 5200 of 2020 10. As regards the other suit schedule properties are concerned, the trial Court shall proceed further as expeditiously as possible. SD/- (M.G.S. KAMAL) JUDGE sac List No.: 2 Sl No.: 4
