THE HON’BLE SRI JUSTICE SANJAY KUMAR WRIT PETITION NO.5296 OF 2011 DATED 4th MARCH, 2011 Between: Smt.S.Dil Nawaz Tabassum And others. … Petitioners a n d The Sub-Registrar, Renigunta Sub-District, Renigunta, Chittoor District. … Respondent THE HON’BLE SRI JUSTICE SANJAY KUMAR WRIT PETITION NO.5296 OF 2011 O R D E R The action of the Sub-Registrar, Renigunta, Chittoor District, in refusing to receive and register the documents presented by the petitioners in respect of their Plot Nos.12, 40, 69, 70, 71 and 141 in Sy.No.212/14, Damineedu Residential Area, Tiruchanur Gram Panchayat, Tiruchanur, Tirupati Mandal, Chittoor District, is assailed. The reason for not entertaining the documents is stated to be the order of attachment passed in certain civil proceedings pertaining to the subject land. Due to the same the registration authorities, relying upon Standing Order No.219, are refusing to entertain the petitioners’ documents for registration. Standing Order No.219 pertains to cases where there is an order from the High Court or any other civil Court restraining any person from alienating a property and if such order is brought to the notice of the Registration Authorities, they are estopped from going ahead with the registration. The import of this Standing Order is reflected in the Circular Memo dated 10.03.2010 of the Commissioner and Inspector General of Registration and Stamps, Andhra Pradesh, Hyderabad. It is however pertinent to note that in the present case, there is admittedly no order restraining the alienation, or registration of any document, in respect of the subject land. Mere attachment of the property would not have the effect of interdicting the registration of documents in respect of such land. The sale transaction covered by the document so registered would be subject to the charge created under the attachment order, but would not be rendered illegal. That being so, there shall be a direction to the Sub-Registrar, Renigunta, Chittoor District, to entertain the petitioners’ documents in respect of Plot Nos.12, 40, 69, 70, 71 and 141 in Sy.No.212/14, Damineedu Residential Area, Tiruchanur Gram Panchayat, Tiruchanur, Tirupati Mandal, Chittoor District, and process and register the same in accordance with law. The writ petition is disposed of with the above direction. No order as to costs. --------------------------- SANJAY KUMAR,J 4th MARCH, 2011 Note: Issue copy by Tuesday.
