PIUS C.KURIAKOSE, J.

Under challenge in this revision petition filed under Section 20

of Act 2 of 1965 is the order of eviction passed by the Rent Control

Court on the ground of arrears of rent under Section 11(2)(b) and

the judgment of the Rent Control Appellate Authority confirming

the same. The revision is filed by the tenants and we notice that

several serious disputes regarding the contract rent payable and

also regarding the amount allegedly advanced by the revision

petitioners at the time of taking the buildings have been raised. We

are not inclined to examine the merits of these grounds since we

are informed by both sides that the building in question was

admittedly surrendered to the landlady lying prior to the institution

of the RCR’s. R.C.R will stand dismissed on that reason. While

adjudicating suits filed subsequently for arrears of rent the Civil

Court will not be unduly influenced by the evidence entered in the

impugned order and judgment regarding the contract rent and the

advance paid by the revision petitioners, if any such suit or appeal

RCR 132/2007 2

is pending.
