The present Writ Petition has been filed for the issuance of a Writ of Certiorarified Mandamus, to quash the impugned refusal check slip dated 22.07.2025 and consequently, direct the first respondent to register the document (partition Release deed) dated 22.07.2025 presented by the petitioner.

¶18

the case of T.Senthilvel Vs. The District Registrar and others in W.P.(MD)No.22114 of 2024 dated 17.10.2024, wherein, the Hon'ble Single Judge
