No. 652 of 2019 in O.S. No. 159 of 2016. 2. In the aforesaid order, the application filed by the petitioners/plaintiffs, seeking for appointment of an Advocate Commissioner to note down the physical features of the suit schedule property, has been dismissed on the ground that the application has been filed only to collect evidence in support of the petitioners’ case. 3. The law is now well settled that, for collecting evidence, an Advocate Commissioner cannot be appointed. The trial Court, has passed the impugned https://www.mhc.tn.gov.in/judis CRP No. 4093 of 2026 order, only after taking into consideration the fact that the petitioners had earlier filed an application, along with the suit, seeking for appointment of an Advocate Commissioner, which got dismissed, has once again filed an application, seeking for appointment of an Advocate Commissioner on the ground that, during the pendency of the suit, the respondents/defendants had encroached upon the suit schedule property. 4. If there was any encroachment, the petitioners/plaintiffs ought to have filed an amendment application, seeking to amend the pleadings, as well as the suit schedule. Without filing an amendment application, the petitioners/plaintiffs have filed an application for appointment of an Advocate Commissioner to note down the physical features of the suit schedule property without giving details of the actual encroachment said to have been committed by the respondents/defendants. 5. The trial Court has rightly held that the application has been filed by the petitioners/plaintiffs only to collect evidence. As observed earlier, an Advocate Commissioner cannot be appointed to collect evidence. Therefore, this Court does not find any merit in this Civil Revision Petition. Accordingly, this Civil Revision Petition is dismissed. No Costs. Consequently, connected miscellaneous petition is closed. https://www.mhc.tn.gov.in/judis CRP No. 4093 of 2026 6. Since no adverse orders are passed against the respondents, notice to the respondents is dispensed with by this Court. 23-07-2026 Index:Yes/No Speaking/Non-speaking order Internet:Yes Neutral Citation:Yes/No ab https://www.mhc.tn.gov.in/judis CRP No. 4093 of 2026 To The District Munsif Court, Palacode. https://www.mhc.tn.gov.in/judis CRP No. 4093 of 2026 ABDUL QUDDHOSE J. ab CRP No. 4093 of 2026 and CMP No. 17878 of 2026 23-07-2026 https://www.mhc.tn.gov.in/judis
