For Petitioner(s): MR.B.JAWAHAR FOR MR.Amar Dineshbhai Pandiya For Respondent(s): MR.S.Ramesh Kumar ORDER The Civil Revision Petition is filed challenging the impugned order passed in I.A. No. 01 of 2025. The petitioner/tenant filed the said application https://www.mhc.tn.gov.in/judis CRP No. 3043 of 2025 __________ Page2 of 4 before the trial Court seeking a copy of the trust deed pertaining to the respondent/landlord, contending that the respondent is not competent to maintain the suit in respect of the property. Accordingly, he disputed the right and title of the respondent. 2. The said application was dismissed by the Trial judge on the ground that the landlord-tenant relationship was not denied and, therefore, production of the trust deed was unwarranted. Aggrieved by the same, the present revision has been preferred. 3. The learned counsel for the petitioner submitted that, as on date, the respondent is not the lawful owner of the property and, therefore, is not entitled to receive rent. He further submitted that the petitioner has a valid objection regarding the respondent’s right over the property and hence seeks a copy of the trust deed. 4. Per contra, the learned counsel for the respondent submits that the petitioner has been a tenant since around 1960 and has been regularly paying rent. At this stage, disputing the locus standi of the respondent/landlord is not tenable nor he is entitled to challenge the title. 5. In view of the above, this Court finds no reason to interfere with the https://www.mhc.tn.gov.in/judis CRP No. 3043 of 2025 __________ Page3 of 4 order passed by the Trial Court. Accordingly, the revision is dismissed as devoid of merits. Consequently, connected miscellaneous petition is closed.
