JUDGEMENT
-
(1.) This application is at the instance of the
plaintiff and is directed against the order no.85 dated December
13, 2010 passed by the learned Judge, City Civil Court, Calcutta
in Title Suit No.61 of 2005 thereby allowing the application dated
June 16. 2010 filed by the plaintiff and the application dated
October 6, 2010 filed by the defendant.
(2.) The plaintiff/petitioner instituted a Title Suit No.61 of
2005 praying for permanent injunction and other consequential
reliefs. In that suit, the defendant appeared. It is carrying on
a business in the shop room in suit as a tenant under the
plaintiff. The defendant / opposite party wanted to
repair/renovate the said shop room and for that reason, the
plaintiff filed the suit for permanent injunction and other
consequential reliefs. In that suit, the Hon'ble High Court,
Calcutta passed an order in F.M.A.T. No.505 of 2005 thereby
directing that an inspection of the said shop room should be done
by a commissioner. He should submit report thereafter. The
defendant was at liberty to make construction. Then, after
completion of the repairing/renovation work, another inspection
was to be held by the same commissioner and he should submit
report. Thereafter, the plaintiff and the defendant filed an
application with regard to the repair and both the petitions were
disposed of by the impugned order. Being aggrieved, the plaintiff
has come up with this application.
(3.) Now, the question is whether the impugned order should be
sustained.
Upon hearing the learned counsel for the parties and on going
through the materials on record, I find that the plaintiff
/petitioner filed the suit for permanent injunction and other
consequential relief against the defendant/tenant. In that suit,
the question of repair/renovation of the premises in suit arose
because the suit shop room was required for urgent
repair/renovation for the business purpose. The matter went to
the Hon'ble High Court and by an order dated March 9, 2005 in
F.M.A.T. No.505 of 2005, a Hon'ble Division Bench of this Court
made detailed observations what type of repairing/renovation work
was to be done and what was the mode of doing the work. According
to that order of the Division Bench, the learned Trial Judge was
to appoint an advocate commissioner for the purpose of local
inspection. After such local inspection, the commissioner was to
submit his report before the Court. Thereafter, the defendant
would start renovation works. After completion of the
repairing/renovation work, the same advocate commissioner would
further submit his report before the Court. The matter came again
before the Hon'ble Court and by an order dated September 21, 2010,
this Bench directed that if the defendant intended to repair the
premises in suit, he had to comply with such directions as
observed by the Hon'ble Division Bench in the F.M.A.T. No.505 of
2005 and to take appropriate measures accordingly. Otherwise, the
question of repair could not be granted. The impugned order
challenged therein could not be sustained accordingly.;
