Heard the learned counsel appearing on either side and perused the materials available on record. 3. The learned counsel appearing for the petitioner submitted that the petitioner obtained a Judgement and Decree for partition in O.S.No.13 of 2010 as against the fourth respondent and his family members. Pursuant to the final decree, the petitioner was allotted the subject property and he was also issued patta. While being so, the petitioner was not able to enjoy the fruits of the decree, since the fourth respondent, who is the grandfather of the petitioner, remained in occupation of the subject property. 4. On instructions, the learned counsel for the fourth respondent submitted that though the subject property was subjected for partition, it was sold out in favour of the third party. Now, the purchaser is in possession and enjoyment of the subject property. https://www.mhc.tn.gov.in/judis WP Crl. No. 1006 of 2025 __________ Page3 of 4 5. In view of the above, when a civil dispute is pending in respect of the subject property between the fourth respondent and the third-party purchaser, the prayer sought for in this petition to provide adequate police protection cannot be granted. Thus, the writ petition lacks merit and is liable to be dismissed. Accordingly, this Writ Petition (Criminal) stands dismissed.
