The present Civil Second Appeal under Section 100 of the Code of Civil Procedure has been filed by the appellants-defendants-tenants in a suit for eviction and for recovery of arrears of rent against the impugned judgment dated 03.10.1997 passed by the learned Additional District Judge No. 1, Udaipur in Civil Appeal No. 50/1995 "LRs of Ejaj Mehandi v. Mohammed Umar & Ors." by which, the learned First Appellate Court had dismissed the appeal filed by the defendants and affirmed the judgment dated 30.09.1983 passed by the learned Munsif & Judicial Magistrate, First Class, Udaipur City (South) in Civil Original Suit No. 75/1981 "Mohammed Umar & Ors. v.

Being dissatisfied by the judgment and decree dated 03.10.1997, the defendants have preferred the present second appeal in which, while admitting the appeal on 23.02.1998, a coordinate Bench of this Court has framed the following substantial question of law:- "Whether the appellants are precluded under Section 116, Evidence Act from denying the title of respondent No. 1 Mohd. Umar and leading evidence in respect of the suit property in the facts and circumstances of the case and the evidence on record and whether the relationship of land-lord and tenant is established between the parties?" 4.

Sheetal Kumbhat & Mr. B.K. Bhatnagar appearing for the respondents-plaintiffs submitted that since the possession of the suit property in question has been handed over to the landlord-Mohammed Umar & Ors., the present second appeal filed by the defendants-appellants has become infructuous and the same is, therefore, liable to be dismissed as such. 6.
