(1.) By this common order all the three Civil Revision Petitions are being disposed. These civil revision petitions have been filed by the respective petitioners-tenants. By the impugned common fair and separate decretal orders, the Rent Control Appellate Court has allowed R.C.A.Nos.679 to 681 of 2007 filed by the respondent/landlady.
(2.) The Respondent/landlady herein had originally filed R.C.O.P.Nos.858 to 862 of 2006 under Sec. 10(2)(i) and 10(3)(e)(i) of the Tamil Nadu Buildings (Lease and Rent Control ) Act 1960to evict the petitioners and two others.
(3.) Petitioners/ Tenants resisted the case of the Respondent/Landlady and disputed the maintainability of the proceedings before the Rent Controller. Respective Petitioners/Tenants however admitted that there was a default from their side but blamed the respondent/landlady for the default inasmuch as she failed to collect the rent periodically.
