O R D E R Jobin Sebastian, J.

This Rent Control Revision is filed by the tenant in R.C.P. No.

16/2019 on the file of the Rent Control Court, Thrissur, who is the appellant in R.C.A. No. 118/2025 before the Rent Control Appellate Authority, Thrissur.

2. The aforesaid R.C.P. was filed by the respondent herein, the landlord, under Sections 11 (2)(b) and 11(3) of the Kerala Buildings (Lease and Rent Control) Act, 1965 (hereinafter referred to as “the Act”), seeking eviction of the tenant. During the pendency of the Rent Control Petition, the Rent Control Court passed an order under Section 12 (1) of the Act directing the tenant to deposit the admitted arrears of rent and to continue to deposit the rent that may subsequently become due in respect of the tenanted building.

3. However, the tenant failed to comply with the said direction within the time stipulated in the order. Consequently, the Rent Control Court passed an order of summary eviction under Section 12 (3) of the Rent Control Act. Aggrieved by the said order, the tenant preferred an appeal before the Rent Control Appellate Authority as R.C.A. No. 118/2025. The said appeal was dismissed by judgment dated 27.11.2025. Challengin
