ORDER

Challenge has been made to the impugned order dated 22.04.2022 of the 2nd respondent and for a direction to the 2nd respondent to conduct fresh enquiry and pass order to cancel the Document No.1471 of 2013 and Document No.3267 of 2015 regarding the petitioner's Property in S.No.64/1 situated at Nemam Malakudiyiruppu Village, Nemam, Thirupathur Taluk, Sivagangai District.

2. It is the case of the petitioner that the petitioner is the owner of the property. The suit filed by the third respondent and his mother in O.S.No.223/1995 was dismissed by the trial Court and second appeal filed in S.A.No.2003/2020 was also allowed and review petition is also dismissed. Therefore, according to him, the petitioner is the absolute owner. Therefore, he has given a complaint to cancel the document executed by the third respondent in favour of the 8th respondent and 3/6

subsequent deed dated 27.11.2015 executed by the 8th respondent in favour of the third respondent. However, the impugned order has been passed as if no power is vested with the department. According to the writ petitioner, since decree itself is in his favour, the subsequent document executed in favour of the respondents 3 and 8 cannot be valid in the eye of law. Hence, the same ought to have been cancelled.

3. If really the decree and judgment as stated by the petitioner is in his favour, the sale will not bind the petitioner. Therefore, if the petitioner registered the decree before the concerned Sub Registrar, that will take care of it. If the document is annulled or the the suit is decreed, any subsequent sale will not confine ownership. Let the petitioner produce the document for registration. On such production, the document should be registered.

4. With the above direction, the writ petition is disposed of. No costs.
