No. 56 OF 2020 IN 2 O.S.

No. 62" OF 2014, on the file of IInd Additional District Judge, Srikakulam pending disposal of the main Civil Revision Petition as otherwise I suffers irreparable loss and to pass such other Counsel for the Petitioner(S): 1. A RAVI SHANKAR Counsel for the Respondent(S): 1. T V SRI DEVI 3 The Court made the following: Heard the learned counsel for the petitioners and the learned counsel for the 1st respondent. 2. This revision was filed against the order in I.A.No.56 of 2020 in O.S.No.61 of 2016 on the file of Senior Civil Judge, Rajam dated 11.03.2022 dismissing the application for condoning the delay of 430 days to set aside the abatement in filing the L.R. application. 3. The learned counsel for the petitioners submits that the petitioners are the plaintiffs and the suit was instituted for partition of plaint schedule properties amongst the family members. The petitioners and the respondents are the family members and the 2nd petitioner died and as such the 3rd petitioner was sought to be impleaded as the legal representative of the deceased 2nd petitioner. In filing the said application before the trial court, there was a delay of 430 days as the 2nd plaintiff died on 01.06.2018. Unless, all the parties are brought on record, there cannot be any effective persuasion of the partition suit. With incomplete cause title of the family members there cannot be any effective adjudication in the matters specifically like suit for partitions. The trial court ought not have proceeded on technicalities by rejecting the condone delay application/ Section 5 Limitation Act application. 4. On the other hand, the learned counsel for the 1st respondent/ defendant also submits that, the proper and necessary parties for the partition suit shall be there on record. 4 5. In view of the above said facts and circumstances, since there is a death of one of the plaintiffs, it is just and necessary to bring the L.Rs. on record as the cause survives and as noted above, since it is a partition suit, there shall be a complete cause title including all the family members/ stakeholders for the said partition of the plaint schedule property by hearing the matter on merits. For the said purpose, it is just and necessary to bring the L.R. on record. The trial court ought to have allowed the above said application to bring the L.R. on record for the deceased 2nd plaintiff. In view of the same, the order in I.A.No.56 of 2020 in O.S.No.61 of 2016 on the file of Senior Civil Judge, Rajam dated 11.03.2022 is set aside herewith. 6. Accordingly, the Civil Revision Petition is allowed. Interim order if any deemed to have been vacated. There shall be no order as to costs. As a sequel, Interlocutory Applications pending, if any, shall stand closed. __________________________ JUSTICE B.
