2. By the order impugned, the Trial Court has appointed the Court Commissioner, as sought by the Decree Holder. The Trial Court has observed that, pursuant to the judgment and decree passed in O.S. No. 25/2011 dated 19.12.2018, she is entitled to a 1/15th share in the suit schedule properties.

Commissioner to divide Items Nos. 1 to 14 of the suit schedule properties.
3.
Learned counsel appearing for the petitioners submits that the Executing Court has amended the decree, which is impermissible, and that the petitioners have questioned the amendment by filing R.F.A.No.513/2019. It is submitted that, pending the said appeal, the Trial Court cannot proceed with the matter.
4. Having heard learned counsel for the petitioner, perused the material on record. Pursuant to the judgment and decree, the Trial Court has appointed the Court Commissioner to divide the properties. According to the petitioners, the appeal is pending. In the pending appeal, there is no interim
order staying the proceedings. However, the Trial Court has passed an interim order not to draw the final decree. In that view of the matter, the appointment of the Court Commissioner, as part of the other proceedings in the final decree proceedings, can proceed. The same would not come in the way of the interim order granted by the Court. Hence, this Court finds no reason to interfere with the impugned order.
