Judgment

O R D E R There is no representation for the first respondent, despite printing of her name in the cause list.

¶2Heard Mr.C.Vakeeswaran, learned counsel appearing for the petitioner; Mr.Raguvaran Gopalan, learned counsel representing Mr.K.Prabhakar, learned counsel on record for the respondents 2 & 3 and Mr.P.T.Thiraviyam, learned Government Advocate appearing for the respondents 4 to 6.

¶3This civil revision petition is preferred by the petitioner / plaintiff against the order dated 03.03.2014, passed in SR.No.480 of 2014 in Unnumbered O.S.No.....of 2008, by the learned District Munsif, Thuraiyur.

¶4It is seen that the unnumbered suit was rejected by the learned Trial Judge, on the ground that though the suit is maintainable for the relief of declaration, the third relief sought for is not maintainable for want of limitation under Article 67 of the Limitation Act, 1963.

¶5However, learned counsel appearing for the respondents 2 and 3 would submit that he has no objection for allowing this civil revision petition, provided, the question of limitation has to be left open for the Trial Court to decide the same, as it is a mixed question of fact and law.

¶6In view of the above, leaving the question of limitation open to the Trial Court to decide the same on merits and in accordance with law, the order dated 03.03.2014, passed in SR.No.480 of 2014 in Unnumbered O.S.No.....of 2008, by the learned District Munsif, Thuraiyur, is set aside. The Trial Court is directed to number the unnumbered suit and dispose of the same on merits and in accordance with law, as expeditiously as possible.

¶7Accordingly, this civil revision petition is allowed. No costs.
