By consent of both the counsel, the Civil Revision Petition is taken up for final disposal.
The petitioner is the second defendant in O.S.No. 811 of 1994 on the file of the District Munsif, Nagercoil. The first respondent herein has filed
the said suit for declaration of her title and for injunction restraining the defendants from trespassing into the plaint schedule property. The suit has
been filed in July, 1994. The petitioner herein filed an application I.A.No. 962 of 1996 for appointment of the Advocate Commissioner, after the
examination of P.W.1, to note down the physical features of the suit property with special reference to the building, to note down the nature of the
property with reference to the level of the property, compound walls ''if any'' on all sides and pathway etc., and such other points as may be
required at the spot. The application was dismissed by the lower court by order dated 19.2.1997 and aggrieved by the same, the present revision
has been filed.
Learned counsel for the petitioner fairly represented that the appointment of Advocate Commissioner is only to note down the physical features
of the property in respect of the possession and enjoyment of the same, by different parties. This is necessitated because the plaintiff is enjoying the
properties by leasing out the same to tenants and whereas the second defendant claims to be in possession of one of the items of the property and
hence unless the Advocate Commissioner is directed to note down the physical features of the property along with the possession of respective
parties, the petitioner would be prejudiced. From the arguments it is clear that the Advocate Commissioner is sought for only to note down the
possession by the respective parties. For this purpose the Advocate Commissioner cannot be appointed. As such I do not find any error of
jurisdiction in the order of the court below and accordingly the revision is dismissed. Consequently, the Civil miscellaneous petitions are, also
dismissed.
