Frequently Asked Questions
Common questions about Revenue legal templates
What is an Application for Restoration of a case dismissed in default?
It is an application under Order 9 Rule 9 CPC seeking to set aside dismissal for non-appearance and to restore the suit/ proceeding on showing sufficient cause, typically within a 30‑day limitation window from dismissal date.
If a restoration application itself is dismissed for default, what remedies exist?
A second restoration application can be moved under Order 9 Rule 9 read with Section 141 CPC showing sufficient cause, and an appeal may lie under Order 43 Rule 1(c) CPC against rejection; these remedies are concurrent per case law.
What is a Revision Petition under Section 17 of the Tamil Nadu Land Revenue Act?
It is a petition to challenge specific revenue orders before the competent revisional authority or court as provided under the TN revenue law framework; templates capture party details, impugned order, grounds, and reliefs.
What should be included in a TN Land Revenue Act Section 17 revision?
Cause title, details of the impugned revenue order (date, number, authority), limitation compliance, facts, specific legal grounds (jurisdictional error, procedural irregularity, perversity), prayer for setting aside/stay, and certified copies annexed.
Are there court‑fee considerations for revenue revisions in Tamil Nadu?
Yes. Court‑fees and valuation follow the Tamil Nadu Court‑Fees and Suits Valuation Act; where valuation depends on land parameters, schedules and multipliers apply per statute and rules.
When do revenue matters also go to High Court in revision?
Where statutes permit or under supervisory jurisdiction, parties sometimes invoke Article 227 against revenue court orders, e.g., from Revenue Divisional Officers or Special Deputy Collectors, subject to maintainability and alternative remedies.
What are best practices for a restoration application draft?
State dismissal date, precise cause for non‑appearance, promptness within limitation, absence of mala fides, attach supporting affidavits and documents, and seek restoration with costs if required.
Does time‑barred rent/dues affect restoration or eviction in revenue tenancy contexts?
Revenue authorities cannot direct deposit of time‑barred arrears while considering eviction/restoration; orders often examine limitation for arrears in cultivating‑tenant matters.
