Arumugam vs Packia Seelan — 101/2024

Case Summary: Arumugam v. Packia Seelan (IA No. 02/2024 in O.S. No. 101/2024) Outcome: Petition ALLOWED The court granted a temporary injunction in favor of Arumugam (petitioner/tenant) against Packia Seelan (respondent/landlord). The respondent and his agents are restrained from interfering with the petitioner's peaceful possession and enjoyment of eight non-residential shop premises until the suit is disposed of by due process of law. The court found that while the initial lease expired on 31.03.2024 and a termination notice was issued on 15.09.2024, the petitioner's tenancy converted to "tenancy at sufferance" rather than outright termination, and the petitioner can only be evicted through proper legal proceedings, not by forcible action.
