Johnbritto v. The District Collector

O R D E R [Order of the Court was made by S.S.SUNDAR, J.] This Writ Petition has been filed for issuance of a Writ of Mandamus, to direct the official respondents to complete the proceedings in its K:.K.M. 1/4262/2022, dated 10.10.2022, and consequently, to remove the encroachment at T.S.No.2186, Seeniyapuram, Srivilliputhur Taluk, Virdhunagar District, on the basis of the petitioner's representation dated

04.05.2023 within a time frame.

¶2The petitioner himself admits that the name of the fourth respondent is wrongly shown as Jeyaram, even though the real name of alleged encroacher is one S.Sethuram. It is also on record that the alleged encroacher has filed a petition to implead himself as a party. Despite receipt of notice of W.M.P.(MD) No.16566 of 2023 to implead the said Sethuram, the petitioner did not bother to correct the name of the fourth respondent.

¶3The Writ Petition is therefore, dismissed for non-joinder of necessary party. However, liberty is given to the petitioner to file a Writ Petition impleading the said Sethuram. No costs.
