of Rs.1,43,497/- together with future interest and other reliefs. By the judgment and decree dated 12.09.2006, the trial Court decreed the said suit ex-parte as against petitioner's father Thimmegowda in favour of the plaintiff-Chikkathammaiah. In pursuance of the said
judgment and decree, the respondent No.2-Decree Holder/Plaintiff instituted the instant execution proceedings in Ex.64/2007, in which the aforesaid Thimmegowda, father of the petitioner was arrayed as a Judgment Debtor. Since the said Thimmegowda did not pay the decreed amount to the decree holder, the suit/execution schedule property was brought to public auction in which the respondent No.1 purchased the same on 21.06.2011 and deposited the entire sale consideration on 04.07.2011, in pursuance of which, the execution petition was closed on 23.07.2011.
4. However, subsequently since the Executing Court did not issue a Sale Certificate in favour of the respondent No.1 - Auction Purchaser, he moved an application under Section 151, which was allowed by the Executing Court vide the impugned
Order dated 03.08.2023 directing issuance of Sale Certificate in favour of the Auction Purchaser, in whose favour the sale had

attained finality and become conclusive and binding not only upon aforesaid Thimmegowda but also the petitioner, who was his son. Subsequently, pursuant to the demise of Dr. Thimmegowda in the year 2023, petitioner is before this Court by way of the present petition.
5. A perusal of the impugned order will indicate that the Executing Court has correctly and properly considered and appreciated the entire material on record including the undisputed fact that the sale in favour of the respondent No.1 - Auction Purchaser had attained finality and become conclusive and binding upon all parties and as such, the Sale Certificate was to be issued in favour of the respondent No.1 - Auction Purchaser. It is needless to state that the judgment and decree and the sale having attained finality and become conclusive and binding upon Dr.Thimmegowda, and the petitioner, who claims through and under him as his son is not entitled to challenge the issuance of Sale Certificate pursuant to the sale conducted in favour of respondent No.1.

material on record, I am of the considered opinion that the impugned order passed by the trial Court cannot be said to suffer from any illegality or infirmity nor can the same be said to be capricious or perverse or having occasioned failure of justice, warranting interference by this Court in exercise of its jurisdiction under Article 227 of the Constitution of India as held by the Apex Court in the cases of Radhey Shyam Vs. Chhabi Nath – (2015) 5 SCC 423, K.P. Natarajan Vs. Muthalammal – AIR 2021 SC 3443 and Mohammed Ali Vs. Jaya – (2022) 10 SCC 477.
