learned counsel representing the petitioners/landlords submits that the lis involves eviction of a tenant from the suit property and the said eviction suit has been decreed ex parte against the defendant.
2. Subsequent to which the opposite party/tenant preferred an application under Order IX Rule 13 which was registered as a Misc. Case and has been allowed.

order dated 12.09.2025, an application for stay of the proceeding was rejected, as such the principle of res judicata or constructive res judicata applies. He further submits that in the alternative, the petitioner/landlord prays for early disposal of the Ejectment appeal.
5. As regards to the issue of res judicata, the said issue was not raised at the time of hearing of the application praying for stay of the proceeding and in respect of which the impugned order has been passed.
6. So an issue which has not been raised at the time of hearing before the Trial Court cannot be agitated herein, as such the issue of res judicata is not entertained.
7. As regards the early disposal of the ejetement appeal, it transpires from the record that the ejectment appeal is of the year 2025 only. As such, this Court is not in a position to entertain the said application seeking early disposal of the ejectment appeal.
8. The present civil revisional application is disposed of being rejected.
