According to<\/p>\n<p>the appellant suit property originally belonged to his grandmother as per a gift<\/p>\n<p>deed of the year 1117 and she, in 1124 executed Ext.A3, mortgage deed<\/p>\n<p>(marked in the first appeal) in favour of mother of appellant who in turn assigned<\/p>\n<p>her right as mortgagee to the appellant in the year 1984. Therefrom appellant<\/p>\n<p>claimed to be in possession of the suit property. He claimed that on the west of<\/p>\n<p>suit property there is a mud wall but there are no defined boundaries on other<\/p>\n<p>sides and hence the suit for declaration of title and possession and fixation of<\/p>\n<p>boundary. Respondent No.2 who contested the suit claimed that appellant has<\/p>\n<p>no right or possession over the suit property and that documents relied by the<\/p>\n<p>appellant are not valid and not binding on respondent No.2.          He disputed the<\/p>\n<p>descriptions in the plaint schedule. He admitted that there was a gift deed in<\/p>\n<p>favour of the grandmother of appellant in 1117 but claimed that one Madan<\/p>\n<p>Mallan had filed O.S.No.376 of 1119 challenging that gift deed and obtained a<\/p>\n<p>favourable decree. In appeal at the instance of the grandmother of appellant,<\/p>\n<p>that case was remanded to the trial court . Then there was a compromise<\/p>\n<p>between parties to that suit and the defendants in that suit were given one acre<\/p>\n<p>as per assignment deed No.1411 of 1950. Mother of appellant executed Ext.B1,<\/p>\n<p>RSA No.815\/2009<\/p>\n<p><span class=\"hidden_text\">                                          2<\/span><\/p>\n<p>partition deed No.2274 dated 17.10.1973.          According to respondent No.2,<\/p>\n<p>appellant has no right, title or interest over the suit property and the mother of<\/p>\n<p>appellant has got right and possession only of 25 cents as per Ext.B1. Out of<\/p>\n<p>the said 25 cents, 21 cents has been assigned to the husband of respondent<\/p>\n<p>No.2, and on the death of husband of respondent No.2 she is in possession<\/p>\n<p>and enjoyment of the said 21 cents. Respondent No.2 claimed that she is in<\/p>\n<p>possession of total of 77 = cents including the 21 cents assigned to the husband<\/p>\n<p>of respondent No.2. Courts below found that there is no proper identification of<\/p>\n<p>the property and dismissed the suit. Hence the Second Appeal.<\/p>\n<p>       2.      Ext.A1 is the photocopy of assignment deed No.6086 of 1984<\/p>\n<p>executed on the strength of Ext.A3, mortgage deed No.6506 of 1124. Ext.A1<\/p>\n<p>refers to 16 cents being a portion of larger extent. Courts below found that<\/p>\n<p>description of property in the plaint schedule did not tally with descriptions in<\/p>\n<p>Ext.A1. Advocate commissioner has submitted Exts.C1 and C1(a), report and<\/p>\n<p>plan. It is seen from Ext.C1 that disputed property was identified by the<\/p>\n<p>commissioner (only) as shown by the appellant (plot EFGHIJKPQR). As per<\/p>\n<p>Exts.C1 and C1(a) on the east of that property it is property in possession of<\/p>\n<p>one Jeevanayakam. But, plaint schedule description is as if property on the<\/p>\n<p>west is of Jeevanayakam. As per Exts.C1 and C1(a), on the south of property of<\/p>\n<p>said Jeevanayakam is the property of Kunjamma. But in the plaint schedule<\/p>\n<p>RSA No.815\/2009<\/p>\n<p><span class=\"hidden_text\">                                           3<\/span><\/p>\n<p>southern boundary is stated as property of Kunjamma. As per Exts.C1 and C2<\/p>\n<p>(a) on the west of disputed property (as shown by the appellant) it is the<\/p>\n<p>property of Sukumaradas. But in the plaint schedule it is stated as the property<\/p>\n<p>of Jeevanayakam. As per Exts.C1 and C1(a) on the north of disputed property<\/p>\n<p>it is the property of Jayaraj purchased from Saraswathi. But, plaint schedule<\/p>\n<p>description is as if property on the north is of one Sivadas. Respondent No.2<\/p>\n<p>claimed right over the disputed property as per Exts.B1 to B3 and B5. PW1,<\/p>\n<p>advocate commissioner has stated that the property claimed by respondent No.2<\/p>\n<p>as per the said documents and the property claimed by the appellant are the<\/p>\n<p>same. Courts below after referring to the oral and documentary evidence and<\/p>\n<p>report and plan prepared by the advocate commissioner came to the conclusion<\/p>\n<p>that identity of the property will not be established.<\/p>\n<p>       3.     It is contended by learned counsel for appellant that Ext.A3 marked<\/p>\n<p>in the first appellate court would show that the survey number of the disputed<\/p>\n<p>property tallied with the survey number stated in Ext.A3. But in a suit of this<\/p>\n<p>nature where prayer is for declaration of title and possession and fixation of<\/p>\n<p>boundary, merely based on survey number alone identification of the property<\/p>\n<p>will not be answered. Courts below have referred to the evidence and come to<\/p>\n<p>RSA No.815\/2009<\/p>\n<p><span class=\"hidden_text\">                                        4<\/span><\/p>\n<p>the conclusion that identity of the property is not established. That is a finding<\/p>\n<p>of fact based on evidence on record. I do not find any substantial question of<\/p>\n<p>law involved in this Second Appeal requiring its admission.<\/p>\n<p>       Resultantly Second Appeal is dismissed in limine.\n<\/p>\n<p>       I.A.No.1766 of 2009 will stand dismissed.\n<\/p>\n<\/p>\n<p>                                                THOMAS P.JOSEPH,<br \/>\n                                                       Judge.\n<\/p>\n<p>cks<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Kerala High Court Devaran Raveendran vs Viswanathan A.V.Sukumaradas on 10 February, 2010 IN THE HIGH COURT OF KERALA AT ERNAKULAM RSA.No. 815 of 2009() 1.
