CORAM: HON'BLE MR. JUSTICE V SRISHANANDA
ORAL JUDGMENT
Learned counsel for the respondents files a memo with copy of the sale deed dated 15.03.1949.
2. A memo came to be filed by the learned counsel for the appellants on 04.08.2025 signed by the appellants as well as their counsel, which reads as under:
“In the above appeal, the appellants herein have challenged the judgment and decree passed in R.A.No. 504/2019 by the II Additional District and Sessions Judge, Mysore, dated 10.04.2024 confirming the
judgment and decree passed in O.S.No.615/2012 dated 06.07.2019 on the file of the IV Addl. I Civil Judge and JMFC, Mysore.
It is submitted that both the courts below in its
judgment; by relying upon the finding given by the Hon’ble Court in O.S.No.288/1997 stating that Smt.Dodda Thayamma (grand mother of the appellants) had executed the registered sale deed in favour of Boregowda dated 15.03.1949 dismissed the suit filed by the mother of the appellants seeking declaration and permanent injunction in respect of the property bearing Sy.No.206/7 of Hebbal village, Kasaba Hobli, Mysore Taluk, measuring 20 guntas decreed the suit as prayed. But in the said suit the respondent/

plaintiff herein who was the defendant had failed to produce the sale deed dated 15.03.1949. Such being the case, in the present suit filed by the respondent seeking grant of permanent injunction in respect of Sy.No.204/8 of Hebbal village, Kasaba Hobli, Mysore Taluk, measuring 20 guntas though the respondent/plaintiff has relied upon the sale deed dated 15.03.1949 in the pleading has failed to furnish the same. Under these circumstances, in order to have full and final adjudication of the dispute between the parties in respect of Sy.No.204/8 of Hebbal village, Kasaba Hobli, Mysore Taluk, measuring 20 guntas and considering the fact that in both the suits i.e., O.S.No. 288/1997 and O.S.No.615/2012 the parties therein did not produce the title deed, the appellants herein seek permission of this Hon’ble Court to withdraw the above appeal with a liberty to file a comprehensive suit seeking declaration and consequential reliefs in respect of the suit schedule property in the interest of justice and equity.”
3. Sri Vikram Phadke, learned counsel for the respondents submits that respondents are in possession of the suit property right from the year 1949 onwards by virtue of registered sale deed. Therefore, suit for injunction filed by the respondents being decreed, has to be upheld. - 5 -

4. The appeal is sought to be withdrawn by the appellants who are the defendants before the Trial Court with permission to file appropriate suit to establish their title to the suit property. 5.
