BY THIS WRIT PETITION (CIVIL) HAVING COME UP FOR ADMISSION ON 30/07/2007, THE COURT ON THE SAME DAY DELIVERED THE FOLLOWING: M.N.KRISHNAN, J ===================== W.P.(C) No.23174 OF 2007 ===================== Dated this the 30th day of July,2007 JUDGMENT This writ petition is filed to challenge the order of the Munsiff's Court, Thalassery in I.A.No.1129 2007 in O.S.No.297 of 2000. By the said application, plaintiffs wanted to amend the plaint by incorporating a prayer for consequential injunction and the relief sought is with reference to any immovable property, the court fee has to be paid under section 25(b) of the Court Fees act. As per the original plaint, the court fee is paid under section 25(d)(i) of the Court Fees Act. 2. I had perused the plaint as well as the amendment application. The prayer in the plaint is to declare the decree of a civil court which was confirmed up to the Supreme Court as not binding on the plaintiffs and to declare that they are the owners in possession of the property. Nowhere in the plaint nor in the amendment application is there any pleading with respect to the alleged threat or attempted act of trespass by the defendants. When there is no such pleading, I am afraid that the court cannot grant or entertain an application to amend the plaint under Section 25(b) of the Court WP(C) 23174/2007 -:2:- Fees Act. Therefore this writ petition lacks merit and the same is dismissed. But it is made clear that if the plaintiffs still apprehends the act of trespass and there is a proper application, then it will not debar them from filing a fresh application for amendment. The dismissal of this writ petition shall not be treated as a ground to refuse the prayer, if it is otherwise allowable. M.N.KRISHNAN, JUDGE Cdp/-
