CRP No. 2938 of 2025
2. It is the case of the petitioners that they filed a suit in O.S.No.901 of 2022 for partition against the first respondent and others on the file of Principal District Court, Coimbatore. In the said suit, the petitioners also sought for a declaration that the preliminary decree obtained by the first respondent in O.S.No.320 of 1991 on the file of III Additional Sub Court, Coimbatore was null and void and also sought for a declaration that the final decree dated 13.09.2004 obtained by the first respondent in I.A.No.1166 of 2004 on the file of Principal District Munsif Court, Coimbatore was null and void. According to the petitioners, the first respondent obtained a decree for partition without impleading the petitioners’ mother Subbathal, who has got share in the suit property. 3. The learned counsel for the petitioners would vehemently contend that pursuant to the final decree passed in I.A.No.116 of 2024 in O.S.No.320 of 1991, the first respondent filed an execution petition in E.P.No. 6 of 201 on the file of District Munsif Court, Sulur. Since the properties involved in O.S.No.901 of 2022 filed by the petitioners and the E.P.No.6 of 2017 in O.S.No.320 of 1991 filed by the first respondent are one and the same, the execution petition pending on the file of the District Munsif Court, Sulur shall be transferred to the Principal District Court, Coimbatore for joint trial along with O.S.No.901 of 2022. __________ Page3 of 6 https://www.mhc.tn.gov.in/judis

4. The petitioner is not entitled to seek transfer of execution petition for joint trial along with O.S.No.901 of 2022 filed by them. Merely because the properties involved in both the suits are one and the same, it can not be tried together, as the issues involved in the suit are beyond the scope of points to be decided in the execution proceedings. As far as the execution proceedings are concerned, the court is only concerned with the executability of the decree, whereas, the substantial rights of the parties have to be decided in the suit.
Further, if it is the case of the petitioners that the decree obtained by the first defendant was null and void, the petitioners have got remedies available under
Order 21 of CPC which can be raised in the execution proceedings itself. Further, the petitioners are also entitled to seek appropriate interim order in the present suit in O.S.No.901 of 2022. The Trial Court rightly dismissed the transfer application by observing that the execution petition cannot be tagged with the original suit. I do not find any illegality of irregularity in the order passed by the Trial Court.
5. Accordingly, this civil revision petition is dismissed. There shall be no
order as to costs. Connected miscellaneous petition is closed. 23-02-2026 Index: Yes/No Speaking/Non-speaking order Neutral Citation: Yes/No MST __________ Page4 of 6 https://www.mhc.tn.gov.in/judis
