This Court on 04.08.2021 required the defendants to file their written statement but, it was not filed. When the matter came up before this Court on 17.09.2021, this Court specifically directed the defendants to file their written statement but, on payment of cost of Rs.5,000/- for delaying it and the case is again posted today. 2.The learned counsel for the defendants submitted that the written statement could not be filed.

3.The institution of Courts is created only to provide an audience to the parties in order they resolve their dispute. However, this Court spots a defendant who does not seem to take the Court and the objective for which it is established seriously and seems to treat it as some kind of casino. https://www.mhc.tn.gov.in/judis/
