5. The aplr:llar-rts further contend that notwithstandir rg the aforesaid orders, tlLc li:s1-ondents, in partrcular the Sth respondent, is proceeding with the construcri( n on thc basis of the municipal permission o lrtained, and the Court bel:!^.haci crred in not injuncting the respondents from proceeding wrth the cons1ructi.,, thereby interfering with the possession o. the appella,ts over the st tlect property.

Learned ilenior Counsel would further contend tha 1 the suit ulde O.S.No.549 of 1996 hled by the 1"t respondent,s r,endor was only an injunction suir simplicitor and the withdrawal of secor:,d apped uide SA.No.487 cf 2(115, during the year 2023 was on account of :he plot of land being sold lt'r rhr: 2",1 respondent herein in favour of the 1srresi.,ondent herein.

Learned Senior Counsel would further contend that since, the

9. respondents are already injuncted from interfering with the peaceful possession by virtue of the aforesaid judgment and decree in OS.No.219 of 2008, the appellalts herein are not entitled for being granted with contra- injunctron, more particularly when the 5th respondent herein is proceeding with the construction by obtaining necessary and vaiid permission from the concerned authorities.

10. We have taken note of the respective submissions made

11. Though the 2"d respondent herein was unsuccessful in getting an injunction against the 1"t appellant herein, and the said order having attained hnatity, it is to be notcd that the 2"d respondent herein had sold the subject property subsequently in favour of the 1"t respondent herein under a registered sale deed, dt. 1O.01.2OOO. The 1"t respondent on purchase of the property had initiated proceedings thereafter against the 1"' appellant herein uide OS.No.219 of 2008, and the said surt has been decreed in favour of the l"t respondent herein uide judgment and decree, dt.14.11.2017, whereby the l appellant herein was injuncted from interfering with the possession of the I I 1"t respondent herein.

12. Further, the tria,1 Court had recorded a categorical finding as to the appellants not being in possession, which is one of the prerequisite for grant of injunction. Also, it is not shown to this Court of the appellants herein having initiated any action against the said judgment and decree passed in O-S.No.219 of 2OO8 as of date. f 4

13. In :he rrltsence of the appelialts herein showrng to thrs Court of the said ordr:r in i,rS.No.219 of 2OO8 being stayed or set asidc by the appellate Court, tlttsi Court ts of the considered view that it is n:t open for the appellanl s to lile ar-ry suit seeking injunction against the Stt, respondent, who has only sucr:ceded to the subject property under a regrstered gift deed executed [)r. t]r{r 1st respondent, being his mother.
