Present petition is filed challenging the rejection of the application filed under Section 24 of Code of Civil Procedure (hereinafter ‘CPC’ for short) by the learned Principal District and Sessions Judge, Mysuru. 3. Facts in the nutshell which are utmost necessary for disposal of the present petition are as under: 3.1. Petitioners filed a suit in O.S.No.286/2023 which is pending before the III Additional Senior Civil Judge and CJM, Mysuru whereas the respondents have filed a case in P and SC No.20/2022 which is pending on the file of IV Additional Senior Civil Judge and JMFC, Mysuru. 3.2. There were some apprehensions expressed by the petitioners with regard to the conduct of the Preceding Officer who was conducting the case in P and SC No.20/2022 and therefore, sought for transfer of the said - 4 - HC-KAR NC: 2025:KHC:49494 CRP No. 493 of 2023 case to III Additional Senior Civil Judge and CJM, Mysuru where O.S.No.286/2023 is pending. 4. On account of the general transfers, the Preceding Officer of IV Additional Senior Civil Judge and JMFC, Mysuru where the P and SC No.20/2022 is transferred, the first apprehension of the petitioners stands quelled automatically. 5. Insofar as the two cases are to be tried by one and the same Court is concerned, instead of transferring the P and SC No.20/2022 to III Additional Senior Civil Judge and CJM, Mysuru, pending suit in O.S.No.286/2023, pending on the file of III Additional Senior Civil Judge and CJM, Mysuru is transferred to IV Additional Senior Civil Judge and JMFC, Mysuru where the P and SC No.20/2022 is pending and to be tried by the very same Judge in order to avoid contradictory orders. - 5 - HC-KAR NC: 2025:KHC:49494 CRP No. 493 of 2023 6. However, the parties are at liberty to seek clubbing of the cases and this Court has not expressed any opinion whether the cases are to be clubbed or not. 7. If any one of the parties oppose for clubbing, the learned Trial Judge shall independently conduct both the matters and pass judgments independently in both the suits. 8. With that directions, the revision petition stands disposed of. Sd/- (V SRISHANANDA) JUDGE KAV List No.: 1 Sl No.: 46
