3/6 WP No. 12556 of 2025 4.In the considered view of this Court, the parties to the civil proceedings are one Palanisamy Mudaliar and Ramakrishna Reddiyar. The petitioner is claiming right over the property by virtue of a Settlement Deed dated
27.06.2017. The petitioner is not a party to the civil proceedings. The order of attachment has been passed towards recovery of a sum of Rs.1,40,414/- 5.The present case is squarely covered by the earlier order passed by this Court in W.P.(MD)No.8422 of 2021 dated 16.07.2021. The relevant portion is extracted hereunder: 10.It is clear from the above judgements that the sale of the subject-property is void only as against the claims enforceable under the order of attachment and not in respect of other claims. That apart, the order of attachment will not bind the petitioner, since he is not a party to the suit and even before the order of attachment was passed by the Civil Court, the petitioner had become the owner of the subject property. Therefore, there is no doubt in the mind of this Court that the
order of attachment passed by the Civil Court on 01.09.2018 https://www.mhc.tn.gov.in/judis
4/6 WP No. 12556 of 2025 will not be a bar for the petitioner to deal with the subject property. 6.In view of the above, the impugned refusal Check Slip issued by the 2 nd respondent dated 28.03.2025, is hereby quashed and there shall be a direction to the 2 nd respondent to register the Memorandum of Deposit of Title Deed executed by the petitioner in favour of M/s. Cholamandalam Investment and Finance Company Limited, Villupuram Branch, if it is otherwise in order. 7.In the result, this writ petition stands allowed with the above directions.
