small plots in favour of 4th and 5th defendants. The 1st defendant had also contended that the husband of late Pedhathipakka is alive and he was not impleaded as a party and the suit is bad for non-joinder of necessary party. The suit is a collusion suit between the plaintiff and the 2nd defendant to defeat the interest of the defendants 1 and 3. Earlier, the second defendant filed the suit in O.S.No.143 of 2008 for declaration of title and for permanent injunction against the third defendant on the file of the Sub Court, Krishnagiri, which was dismissed, after full trial. Therefore, by way of re-agitating the same cause, the second defendant has preferred this suit in O.S.No.30 of 1987 through the plaintiff. The suit properties are not joint family property and are not in joint possession with the plaintiff. She is not entitled for partition. While the third defendant adopted the written statement of the first defendant, the defendants 4 to 8, who are the subsequent purchasers from the first defendant, has put forth their respective cases and pleaded that they are the bonafide purchasers for value and their right and title over the property, should not be disturbed.
