                         W.P.(C) No. 7015 OF 2005
                          -----------------------------------
                   Dated this the 6th day of August, 2007

                                   JUDGMENT

Ext.P11 order by which the learned Munsiff dismissed an

application for joint trial of Suit OS No.105/98 along with OS No.199/01,

a suit filed subsequently on a different cause of action is under

challenge. Heard both sides.

I do not think that there is warrant for interfering with Ext.P11

under the visitorial jurisdiction of this Court. Though the property

involved in the present suit is a part of the properties involved in the

latter suit OS No.199 of 2001, the causes of action are different and

there are more plaintiffs than the latter suit, OS No.199 of 2001. I

sustain the impugned order and dismiss the Writ Petition. However, I

direct the learned Munsiff to try OS No.199 of 2001 as soon as the

present suit is tried and disposed of. I also direct the learned Munsiff to

permit the petitioners to invoke the provisions of Order XIII Rule 10

during the trial of OS No.199 of 2001, so that the petitioners will be able

to take advantage of any material which comes on record in OS No.108

of 1995 in their favour in the latter suit. The above directions in my

opinion will suffice for ensuring that conflicting decisions are not given in

the two suits by the learned Munsiff.
