ORDER
Heard Ms.Elizabeth Ravi, learned counsel for the petitioner.
2. The petitioner had filed an application for payment out of the amount deposited by the respondents towards maintenance and other charges in respect of maintenance of flats in the petition Apartment Complex.
3. I find that the suit has been decreed based on a compromise Memo dated 5.03.2026. Even in the compromise, the parties have recorded the fact that the petitioner is entitled to withdraw the amount together with the accrued interest, being the amounts payable by the respondents towards maintenance and amenity charges. However, when the petitioner took out application in I.A.No.14 of 2026, the trial Court has ordered notice without noticing the terms of joint memo of compromise, based on which, I.A.No.14 of 2026 has been filed.
4. I am able to see from the copy of joint compromise memo available in the typed set of papers, at Clause -4, it has been recorded that the revision petitioner has already taken out an application for payment out of Rs.4,76,819.89 together with accrued interest and the defendants 1 and 2 have clearly expressed no objection for such payment out being ordered in favour of the revision petitioner.
5. In the light of the above, I am unable to see any necessity for the trial Court to have ordered notice to the respondents in the first place. In view of the compromise being acted upon as early as on 05.03.2026, and based on the settlement, the defendants have proceeded to even sell their apartment. In fact, the arrears was coming in the way of the respondents/defendants even alienating the property and that is why the matter was amicably resolved.
6. In such view of the matter, I do not see any necessity for notice being ordered in the payment out application, especially in the light of the no objection expressed by the defendants 1 and 2 even in the joint memo of compromise which forms part and parcel of the decree.
7. In the light of the above, civil revision petition is allowed and the trial Court shall order payment out of Rs.4,99,602/- (Rupees Four Lakhs Ninety Nine Thousand
P.B.BALAJI.,J sr Six Hundred Two only) by allowing I.A.No.14 of 2026 within a period of one week from the date of production of a copy of this order. The trial Court shall also ensure that the amount is paid out within a period of two weeks thereafter. No costs. Consequently, connected miscellaneous petition is closed. 27.08.2026 sr Index:yes/no Website:yes/no Speaking Order/Non-speaking Order Note: Issue Order copy on 28.08.2026 To The XXII Assistant City Civil Court, Chennai
