(1.) COMPENDIOUSLY and concisely, the relevant facts absolutely necessary and germane for the disposal of these two second appeals would run thus:
(2.) HEARD both sides.
(3.) PER contra, the learned counsel for the respondent/Kuppusamy Gounder would advance his arguments, the gist and kernel of them would run thus: The first appellate court though decreed the suit in O.S.NO.85 of 2001 in toto in favour of Kuppusamy Gounder, yet taking into account the fact that Nataraja Gounder has been refusing to permit Kuppusamy Gounder to have ingress and egress to the property and enjoying it, he after passing of the common judgment dated 18.08.2008, has filed a separate suit for recovery of possession and as such, the first appellate court's declaration of Kuppusamy Gounder's ownership over 26 = cents of land, warrants no interference. Inconcinnity with the partition deed Ex.A1, both the courts below concurrently negatived the plea of adverse possession raised by the plaintiff.
