ORDER
The petitioner asserts that he purchased an immovable property in the name of his wife and sister under Sale Deed dated 18.06.2010. It is also stated that said property was sold in favour of one Geetha under Sale Deed dated 05.11.2015 and that the sale proceeds were used to purchase a property on 27.11.2015 in the name of the petitioner’s wife. It is also stated that credit facilities were availed of for the construction of a house on said property and that the petitioner discharged the loan.
2. After a dispute arose between the petitioner and his wife, the petitioner states that he was shocked and surprised to learn that his wife had filed a consumer complaint in C.C.No.58 of 2026 and that a direction was issued on 18.09.2026 to the financial institution to hand over the No Due Certificate and to return the Memorandum of Deposit of Title Deeds along with title documents to the third respondent/petitioner’s wife. The present Writ Petition was filed in these facts and circumstances.
3. Mr.P.Pethu Rajesh, learned Additional Government Pleader, accepts notice for the first respondent. He submits that the petitioner is
WP(MD) No. 31967 of 2026 endeavouring to circumvent the order of the District Consumer Disputes Redressal Commission by approaching this Court.
4. In effect, the petitioner’s case is that he is the real owner of the relevant property and that his wife is no more than the ostensible owner. Thus, there is a civil dispute between the petitioner, on the one hand, and, the private respondents, on the other. It also appears that the petitioner has filed O.S.No.63 of 2025 before the District Munsif, Tiruchirappalli. Unless the petitioner obtains a declaration that he is the real owner and, consequently, entitled to the title deed and other documents relevant to the property, the petitioner is not entitled to any relief.
5. With these observations, this Writ Petition is disposed of without any order as to costs. Consequently, connected miscellaneous petition is closed. 11-11-2026 Index: Yes/No Speaking/Non-speaking order Neutral Citation: Yes/No apd To
