To avoid an avoidable delay, this Court dispenses with the issuance  of notice to the respondent in furtherance of substantial cause of justice.\n<\/p>\n<p>\t\t3. The first  Appellate Authority, namely, Subordinate Judge,Tiruvallur while passing orders in I.A.No.17 of 2009  has inter alia opined that whether the hut and fence have been put up  in road poramboke thereby affecting the right of the respondent\/plaintiff will have to be gone into at the time of deciding the appeal and also that the application has been filed  not with bona fide reasons and even if the application praying for appointment of an Advocate Commissioner  is allowed, the same will not be of any assistance   while rendering the judgment by the Court and resultantly, dismissed the application, without cost.\n<\/p>\n<p>\t\t4. According to the learned counsel for the Revision Petitioners\/Appellants\/Defendants, the impugned order passed by the learned Subordinate Judge in I.A.No.17 of 2009  dated 17.04.2009 is contrary to law and probabilities of the facts and as a matter of fact, the first appellate Authority has failed to appreciate that the petitioners have put up the hut in the poramboke land and therefore,  I.A.No.17 of 2009 ought to have been allowed by the first appellate Authority  and it is very difficult to decide  A.S.No.44 of 2009 without finding out the fact whether  the Revision petitioners have put up hut in S.No.346\/1 or in Government Poramboke land  and  even otherwise, the Government alone is having the right of possession of the land of the petitioners and added further, the balance of convenience  is  in favour of the Revision petitioners, but unfortunately, these material aspects of the matter have not been looked into or adverted to by the Learned Appellate Authority in a proper perspective, which has resulted in miscarriage of justice  and therefore, prays for allowing of the miscellaneous petition in the interest of justice.\n<\/p>\n<p>\t\t4. Revision  petitioners\/Appellants\/Defendants in their affidavit filed in support of  I.A.No.17 of 2009, have inter alia averred that the first petitioner has put up a hut over S.No.334, poramboke land and the respondent\/plaintiff has filed a suit for declaration and injunction and in that suit, he has filed an application praying for appointment of an Advocate Commissioner along with Taluk Head Surveyor and though the said application has been allowed, he  is unable to get the Taluk Head Surveyor to measure the property. The Government Surveyor has surveyed the property and states that the respondent is living in S.No.334\/2 and therefore, the Revision petitioner  has filed the present miscellaneous petition  for appointment of an Advocate Commissioner  along with Taluk Head Surveyor to inspect and survey the S.No.334\/2 and to report before the Court.\n<\/p>\n<p>\t\t5. In the counter filed by the respondent\/plaintiff, it  is mentioned that the evidence of the appellant is clear that they have put up the fence  and hut  in between the plaintiffs&#8217; property and Viday 1st road,  thereby the lower Court has given a finding in regard to the right of access and  any amount of Survey Report cannot improve the stand taken by the defendants and therefore, has prayed for dismissal of the application with costs.\n<\/p>\n<p>\t\t6. It is to be noted that the object of Order 26 Rule 9 C.P.C is not to assist a party to collect evidence where  the party himself can procure or  gather evidence in a  given case. Admittedly, in a Civil Suit  the plaintiff is dominus litus. The appointment of an Advocate Commissioner is within the domain and discretionary power of a Court of Law for elucidating any matter in dispute\/controversy. However, the said power has to be exercised by a Court of law based on judiciary principles.\n<\/p>\n<p> \t\t7. In the present case on hand, before the trial Court, the Revision petitioners\/Appellants have taken out an application praying for appointment of  an Advocate Commissioner and an Advocate Commissioner  has been appointed by the Court and  he  has also submitted his report. In the suit filed by the respondent\/plaintiff, a decree has been passed declaring that the respondent\/plaintiff has right  of an  uninterrupted access to Vidayar Road from the suit property and also that the Revision petitioners\/Appellants, their men etc. have been restrained from putting up compound wall or pucca house in the encroached portion  and also the Revision petitioners\/Appellants, their men  have been directed to  remove the hut and fencing put up by them touching the northern limit of the suit item and two months&#8217; time has been granted by the lower Court to remove the hut and fencing.  As against the said judgment and decree made in O.S.No.186 of 1996 by the lower Court, the Revision petitioners as appellants have preferred an appeal in A.S.No.445 of 2008  before the learned Subordinate Judge, Tiruvallur and as on date the same is pending. During the appeal stage, when the matter is pending, the Revision Petitioners have taken out an application in I.A.N o.17 of 2009  praying for appointment of an Advocate Commissioner along with Taluk Head Surveyor to inspect and survey the S.No.334\/2 and fix the &#8216;F&#8217; line and file his report before the Court.\n<\/p>\n<p>\t\t8. It is an axiomatic fact in law that an appeal is a  continuation of original proceedings  and as per Section 47 of C.P.C an appellate Court shall have all the powers of the trial Court. It is brought to the notice of this court that when the appeal has been posted for hearing arguments,  at that time,  the present application I.A.No.17 of 2009 has been filed by the Revision Petitioners before the learned first appellate authority praying for appointment of an advocate commissioner to inspect S.No.334\/2 and  fix &#8216;F&#8217; line and submit his detailed report.\n<\/p>\n<p>\t\t9. On a careful consideration of the respective contentions and when the appeal is ripe for hearing and final disposal, this court is of the considered view that the present application in I.A.No.17 of 2009 filed by the Revision petitioners praying for appointment of an Advocate Commissioner etc. is not a case of necessity and in fact the said application is  a supernumerary and a surplusage one and the same has been  projected mainly with a view to indulge  in fishing expedition or with a view to make a roving enquiry into the matter and that the first appellate Court can as well  deal with the present appeal based on the available oral or documentary evidence on record  and this is not a case where  without the report of the Advocate Commissioner, the first Appellate Authority is not in a position to deal with the case, and in short,  the application projected by the Revision petitioners  praying for appointment of an Advocate Commissioner is only a otiose one and resultantly, the  Revision fails.\n<\/p>\n<p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t      M.VENUGOPAL,J.\n<\/p>\n<p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t   pal<\/p>\n<p>\t\t10.
