A.S.No.268  of 2004 on the file of V Additional Judge,  City<\/p>\n
Civil  Court,  Chennai is under challenge  in  CRP.No.99  of<\/p>\n
2006.\n<\/p>\n<\/p>\n
      2.  The  revision  petitioner in both  civil  revision<\/p>\n
petitions had filed C.M.P.No.2257 of 2005 and 2256  of  2005<\/p>\n
in  A.S.No.237  of 2004 and A.S.No.268 of 2004  respectively<\/p>\n
under  Section 151 of CPC to get  himself impleaded  in  the<\/p>\n
appeal  as  additional respondent claiming  that he  is  the<\/p>\n
elected  Trustee of the Balija Chetty Community.   The  suit<\/p>\n
in  O.S.No.8692  of  1997  was filed  by  one   A.S.Manavala<\/p>\n
Chetty  under   Order  I  Rule 10 CPC in his  representative<\/p>\n
capacity  of  Balija Chetty Community.  The  said  suit  was<\/p>\n
decreed.\n<\/p>\n<\/p>\n
      3. Aggrieved by the Judgment and decree in O.S.No.8692<\/p>\n
of  1997,  the 7th  defendant in the suit  had preferred  an<\/p>\n
appeal  in  A.S.No.268 of 2004 and the  4th  defendant  ,the<\/p>\n
Executing  Officer had preferred an appeal in A.S.No.237  of<\/p>\n
2005.  The learned first appellate Judge had dismissed  both<\/p>\n
C.M.P.Nos.2257 of 2005 and 2256 of 2005 on the  ground  that<\/p>\n
the  petitioner  is  not  a necessary  party  to  the  suit.<\/p>\n
According  to  the plaintiff, the Managing Trustee  of   Sri<\/p>\n
Arulmigu   Venkatesa  Perumal  Temple  is   one   B.K.Ramesh<\/p>\n
Chettiar.   According  to the revision  petitioner,  he  has<\/p>\n
been elected as the Managing Trustee of the said temple.  To<\/p>\n
substantiate  this contention, the revision  petitioner  has<\/p>\n
not  produced any document before the First Appellate  Court<\/p>\n
to  show that he is the elected Managing Trustee of the said<\/p>\n
Temple.\n<\/p>\n<\/p>\n
       3.    The   learnel  counsel  appearing  for   second<\/p>\n
respondent  relying on a decision reported  in  S.Krishan-v-<\/p>\n
Rathinavel  Naicker  and  22  others(2007(2)CTC  73)   would<\/p>\n
contend  that  additional party cannot be impleaded  at  the<\/p>\n
appellate  stage. The facts of the said case  are  that  one<\/p>\n
Krishnan  has filed a suit in O.S.No.341 of 1998 before  the<\/p>\n
Principal   District  Munsif,  Kancheepuram  for   permanent<\/p>\n
injunction. The first respondent in the said suit had  filed<\/p>\n
three  other  suits ie., O.S.No.799 of 1998,  O.S.No.819  of<\/p>\n
1998  and  O.S.No.573 of 1999 against the plaintiff Krishnan<\/p>\n
in  O.S.No.341 of 1998. Against the Judgment and  Decree  in<\/p>\n
O.S.No.341 of 1998, an appeal has been preferred before  the<\/p>\n
Additional   District    Court(Fast   Track   Court   No.II)<\/p>\n
Kancheepuram in A.S.No. 17 of 2001 wherein respondents 5  to<\/p>\n
23   in  the  first appeal have as  proposed  parties  filed<\/p>\n
I.A.No.426  of 2003 under Order 1 Rule 10(2)of CPC  for  the<\/p>\n
relief of impleading them as additional respondents 5 to  23<\/p>\n
in  the  first  appeal.  The order of  dismissal  passed  in<\/p>\n
I.A.No.426  of  2003  was  challenged  in  the  above   said<\/p>\n
revision   before  this  Court.  Relying  on  two  decisions<\/p>\n
(i)Aliji  Momonji  &  Co., v. Lalji  Mavji  and  others<\/a>(1996<\/p>\n
(5)SCC   379  and  (ii)  Dr.S.Kameswaran-v.A.Jayaraman   and<\/p>\n
another   (1998(2)   CTC 470).      This      Court      has<\/p>\n
held  that  an  impleading petition at the  appellate  stage<\/p>\n
cannot  be  entertained. The relevant  observation  deciding<\/p>\n
this  revision  petition  in Aliji Momonji & Co.,  v.  Lalji<\/p>\n
Mavji and others<\/a>(1996 (5)SCC 379 runs as follows:<\/p>\n
         “The  Supreme Court defined a  necessary<\/p>\n
         party  as one without whose presence  no<\/p>\n
         effective  and complete adjudication  of<\/p>\n
         the  dispute could be made and no relief<\/p>\n
         granted. Proper party is defined as  one<\/p>\n
         whose presence is necessary for complete<\/p>\n
         and   effectual  adjudication   of   the<\/p>\n
         dispute,  though  no  relief  is  sought<\/p>\n
         against  him.  In the case on hand,  the<\/p>\n
         Trial Court has already decided the  lis<\/p>\n
         between  the parties and the correctness<\/p>\n
         of  the  same is under challenge in  the<\/p>\n
         First Appeal. In other words, in so  far<\/p>\n
         as  the  Trial  Court is  concerned,  an<\/p>\n
         effective adjudication has already  been<\/p>\n
         made  by  the Trial Court and a complete<\/p>\n
         and   final   decision  has  also   been<\/p>\n
         rendered.  Therefore, the respondents  5<\/p>\n
         to  23  do not pass either of the  above<\/p>\n
         tests,  to  be  treated as necessary  or<\/p>\n
         proper parties.”\n<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
\n<\/blockquote>\n
The  exact observation in Dr.S.Kameswaran-v.A.Jayaraman  and<\/p>\n
another  (1998(2)  CTC  470) relevant  for  the  purpose  of<\/p>\n
deciding this case runs as follows:<\/p>\n
         ”  A  Division Bench of this Court  held<\/p>\n
         that  a  party  can  be  impleaded  when<\/p>\n
         there is a cause of action against  him.<\/p>\n
         But in this case, the actual parties  to<\/p>\n
         the   litigation,  claim  title  to  the<\/p>\n
         property  as absolute owners  and  there<\/p>\n
         is  no  pleading to the effect that  the<\/p>\n
         proposed    respondents   have    either<\/p>\n
         denied  the title of any one of them  or<\/p>\n
         interfered   with  the  possession   and<\/p>\n
         enjoyment of any one of them.   Thus  no<\/p>\n
         cause  of  action is either  pleaded  or<\/p>\n
         sought  to  be established  against  the<\/p>\n
         proposed  parties  and  hence  they  are<\/p>\n
         actually     unnecessary     for     the<\/p>\n
         adjudication  of  the  lis  between  the<\/p>\n
         parties,  especially  at  the  stage  of<\/p>\n
         the appeal”.\n<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
\n<\/blockquote>\n
In  the  absence  of any evidence to show that  the  present<\/p>\n
revision petitioner is the elected Managing Trustee  of  the<\/p>\n
Sri  Arulmigu  Venkatesa Perumal Temple, I am  of  the  view<\/p>\n
that  the  findings of the learned first appellate Judge  in<\/p>\n
C.M.P.Nos.2257   of 2005 and 2256 of 2005 in  A.S.No.237  of<\/p>\n
2005  and  A.S.No.268  of  2005  respectively  need  not  be<\/p>\n
interfered with.\n<\/p>\n<\/p>\n
      4. In fine both civil revision petitions are dismissed<\/p>\n
confirming the order passed in C.M.P.Nos.2257  of  2005  and<\/p>\n
2256  of  2005 in A.S.No.237 of 2005 and A.S.No.268 of  2005<\/p>\n
respectively on the file of  V Additional Judge, City  Civil<\/p>\n
Court,    Chennai.   No   costs.   Consequently,   connected<\/p>\n
C.M.P.Nos.786  and 787 of  2006 are also dismissed.   It  is<\/p>\n
represented that the plaintiff in O.S.No.8692 of 1997  is  a<\/p>\n
Senior  Citizen.  Under   such  circumstances,  the  learned<\/p>\n
first  appellate Judge is directed to dispose of appeals  in<\/p>\n
A.S.No.237  of 2005 and 268 of 2005 within a period  of  two<\/p>\n
months from the date of receipt of a copy of this order.<\/p>\n
