1927 Supreme(Mad) 38
MADHAVAN NAIR
Abdul Kadi Rowther – Appellant
Versus
Uthumansa Rowther – Respondent
JUDGMENT
Madhavan Nair, J.
1. In this case the plaintiff-respondent obtained a decree under Section 9 of the Specific Relief Act for possession of the property and also for mesne profits. It is argued that the lower Court is wrong in passing a decree for mesne profits, as the passing of such a decree does not come within the scope of a suit under Section 9 of the Specific Relief Act. This argument is clearly supported by the decision of this Court in Thavasi v. Arumugam [1915] 30 M. L. J. 326 Following this decision.
