The writ order dated 04.10.2023 in W.P.No.28226 of 2023 is under challenge in the present Writ Appeal. 2. The writ petitioner is the appellant before this Court. The Writ Petition has been instituted challenging the order dated 21.07.2023 passed by the District Registrar (Administration) under Section 77-A of the Registration Act. Section 77-A of the Registration Act provided adjudicatory power on the District Registrar regrading the validity of the documents registered. The Division Bench of this Court in a batch of Writ Petitions have declared Section 2/5 https://www.mhc.tn.gov.in/judis W.A.No.427 of 2024--------------------------77-A as null and void and ultra vires to the Constitution. Therefore, the order passed under Section 77-A cannot be sustained. Thus, the remedy lies before the competent civil Court for the purpose of establishing civil rights between the parties. 3. Granting liberty to the parties to workout their remedy in the manner known to law, the Writ Appeal stands disposed of. No costs. Consequently, the connected miscellaneous petition is closed.
