For Petitioners: in both CRPs M/s. K.

Originally, a suit in O.S.No.275 of 1999 on the file of the Principal Subordinate Court, Gobichettipalayam, had been filed by the first respondent/plaintiff against the respondents 2 to 7/defendants, and judgment was passed in the said suit on 29.03.2001. 3. Subsequently, the first respondent had also filed E.P.No.203 of 2006, in which, Attachment notice was ordered, and auction notice was also issued on 27.12.2018, stating that the auction would be conducted on 07.02.2019. Hence, the petitioners herein filed an application in E.A.No.86/2017 under Order 21 Rule 58 of CPC to cancel the Attachment order dated 18.01.2012 and claimed right over the first item of the suit schedule mentioned property. They also filed another application in E.A.No.87 of 2017 under Order 21 Rule 59 of CPC to 3/7 https://www.mhc.tn.gov.in/judis CRP Nos.1530 & 1551 of 2019 stay all further proceedings in E.P.N.203 of 2006 till disposal of the E.A.No.86 of 2017. Both E.A.Nos.86 & 87 of 2017 were dismissed by the Execution Court as the petitioners had not turned up to begin the enquiry. To restore both E.As, the revision petitioners filed applications before the E.P. Court. So far, both the petitions have not been numbered, hence, the petitioners are before this Court with this revision. 4. According to the petitioners, the first petitioner has purchased the property on 22.01.2008, whereas, the attachment has been effected by the Execution Court in the year 2012 and the auction was later scheduled to be conducted on 07.02.2019. In this regard, he filed an application to adjudicate his right in the first item of the suit schedule property. That application was originally numbered as E.A.No.86 of 2017. Besides, he had also filed a stay application in E.A.No.87 of 2017 to stay the execution proceedings. Both applications were dismissed for default on 30.08.2017. Though the petitioners filed applications to restore the said E.A.Nos.86 & 87 of 2017 within the stipulated time, i.e. on 22.09.2017, the said applications have not been 4/7 https://www.mhc.tn.gov.in/judis CRP Nos.1530 & 1551 of 2019 numbered so far. 5. This Civil Revision Petition stands dismissed as against the respondents 2 to 4, 6 and 7, for non compliance with the requirements of the Registry including payment of batta vide order dated 08.02.2023. 6. Though Mr.Revathi Manivannan, learned counsel takes notice for the respondents 1 and 5, he neither filed vakalat nor appeared on behalf of them. 7. I have considered the submissions made by the learned counsel for the petitioners and perused the materials available on records carefully. 8. It is seen from the records that such applications have been filed on 22.09.2017 itself within the period of limitation, which were returned. Again, the same were re-presented on many dates, however, they were not yet numbered. Hence, this court is inclined to allow the Civil Revision Petitions. 5/7 https://www.mhc.tn.gov.in/judis CRP Nos.1530 & 1551 of 2019 9. Accordingly, these Civil Revision Petitions are allowed and the Execution Court is directed to number the applications filed for restoration of E.A.Nos.86 & 87 of 2017 and dispose of the same on its own merits and in accordance with law, within a period of two (2) months from the date of receipt of a copy of this order. Consequently, connected miscellaneous petition is closed.
