MINOR JAYALAKSHMI Vs. SEENUVASAN

JUDGEMENT

(1.) The revision petitioners, who are 3rd parties to the proceedings, have filed the Civil Revision Petition challenging the order passed by the Subordinate Court, Kallakurichi, returning the Section 47 application filed by them in E.P.No.250 of 2009 in O.S.No.31 of 2004.

(2.) It is settled position that a 3rd party to the proceedings cannot file an application under Section 47 of the Civil Procedure Code. The provisions of Section 47 are very clear that only parties to the suit or their representatives have got right to file an application under Section 47 of the Civil Procedure Code. Admittedly, the revision petitioners are 3rd parties and therefore, the Execution Court has rightly returned the application stating that the application is not maintainable.

(3.) In these circumstances, I do not find any error or irregularity in the order passed by the Execution Court. The Civil Revision Petition is devoid of merits and is liable to be dismissed. Accordingly, the Civil Revision Petition is dismissed.
