- Representation for return of sale deed and relevant documents Analysis: The judgment delivered by Mr. Justice M. Jaichandren of the Madras High Court pertains to a writ petition where the petitioner sought permission to make a representation to the second respondent regarding the return of a sale deed dated 22.1.1973, registered on 13.2.1996, along with other relevant documents. The petitioner's counsel requested the court to allow the representation, and the respondents' counsel did not object to this request. The court, considering the limited relief sought and without delving into the merits of the case, granted permission to the petitioner to make the representation within two weeks. Upon receipt of the representation, the second respondent was directed to dispose of the matter on merits and in accordance with the law, providing an opportunity for a hearing to the petitioner and other concerned parties, if any, within four weeks from the date of receipt. This judgment emphasizes the importance of allowing the petitioner to present their case for the return of the sale deed and relevant documents to the second respondent. The court's decision to grant permission for representation highlights the procedural fairness and adherence to legal principles in dealing with such matters. By directing the second respondent to consider the representation and make a decision within a specified period, the court ensures that the petitioner's rights are protected and due process is followed. The judgment concludes by disposing of the writ petition with the aforementioned directions, without imposing any costs on either party.
