JUDGMENT

The petitioner has challenged Ext.P6 order passed by the Principal Sub Court, Thrissur in O.S.No.446/2013, whereby the Court referred the matter to the Land Tribunal for determining the tenancy rights claimed by the defendants. The petitioner is the legal representative of one Gopalakrishnan. The defendants claimed oral tenancy under Gopalakrishnan. The predecessor-in-interest of the defendants had earlier filed a suit as O.S.No.255/1993 before the Munsiff Court, Wadakkanchery seeking an order of injunction restraining the predecessor of the petitioner from alienating the property which was in the possession of the defendants and also seeking an injunction against forcible eviction. The suit was decreed by the trial court. The predecessor of the petitioner filed A.S.No.222/1995 before the District Court, Thrissur. The District Court allowed the appeal and dismissed the suit, against which the predecessor in interest of the respondents filed S.A.No.612/1999 before this Court. By Ext.P3 judgment
