JUDGMENT

(Order of the Court was made by DR.G.JAYACHANDRAN.,J) 1/4

The Writ Appeal has been filed challenging the order of the learned Single Judge made in W.P(MD)No.36344 of 2025, dated 18.12.2025.

2.Mr.M.Lingadurai, learned Additional Government Pleader takes notice for the respondent.

3.The Petitioner/appellant herein is a purchaser and challenging the refusal slip issued by the respondent, the appellant has filed a frivolous Writ Petition challenging the refusal slip issued by the Sub-Registrar, pursuant to the Court degree which has cancelled the title deed for want of conveyance of property. Two more reasons are given for issuance of refusal slip. Contesting the said reasons, the Petitioner ought to have approached the appellate authority under Section 73-A of the Registration Act instead of filing this Writ Petition. The learned Single Judge had rightly dismissed the Writ Petition. Being aggrieved by the said order, the appellant/Petitioner has filed this appeal which is equally frivolous as that of the Writ Petition. The appellant herein has to explain to the appellate authority about the Civil Court Decree which stands in the way of registration and convince the appellate authority. These facts cannot be tested in the Writ Court.

2/4

4.Hence the Writ Appeal stands dismissed. No costs. [G.J.,J.] [K.K.R.K.,J.] 04.02.2026 NCS : Yes/No Index : Yes / No Internet : Yes / No vsn To The Sub-Registrar, Sub-Registrar Office, Bodinayakanur, Theni District.
