Writ petitions are not maintainable when a decree in civil suit exists and sufficient relief has been granted.

(Order of the Court was made by S.M.Subramaniam J.)

Writ Petition has been instituted challenging the notice issued by the Tamilnadu Urban Habitat Development Board for eviction of encroachers from the boundaries of tenament, since it is causing obstructions to the tenament as well as the public at large and to construct a new block by demolishing the existing structures.

2. The petitioner has already instituted a Civil Suit and a decree came to be issued. Under such circumstance, the present writ petition is not maintainable.

3. However, the learned Standing Counsel appearing for the Tamilnadu Urban Rehabitat Development Board would submit that the petitioner is found eligible and allotment order has been issued to the petitioner. That being the factum, the writ petition is unnecessary. Hence, the Writ Petition stands dismissed. No costs. Consequently, connected miscellaneous petitions are closed.
