Landlord played fraud on court; so want to file review petition on rca judgment.

Kumar (Querist) 22 September 2014 This query is : Resolved
Our landlord filed eviction and fair rent case against us. He got the judgment (RCOP and RCA) in his favor by arguing that he needs the property for his own use (running business).
Recently we came to know that he made a sale agreement on may-2009 while the case in the court (he filed the RCOP case on March 2009).
Now we got the certified document copy of the sale agreement from the Registrar Office.
The time limit of sale agreement is 15 months, but it can be extended with both parties mutual consent. The sale agreement neither executed nor canceled.
Landlord played fraud on court that is, he argued that he need the property for running business but he is trying to sell the property for higher profit.
RCA judgment was given on 24 july 2014 (Time for eviction is 2 months) we haven’t received the judgment copy yet now. We got the unofficial Xerox copy of it.
Our current lawyer is not impressed with the sale agreement evidence given by us. He also suppressed some valid points in his arguments. So we are looking for a good lawyer right now.
1) Now my question is can we file REVIEW PETITION together with application for condo nation of delay

2) Please clarify the time limitation for filing petition or appeal in the same court or in high court?
3) Advice about any other alternatives
4) We are looking for a good lawyer in Chennai, if anybody interested please reply.

Irrespective of other things, if you are an aggrieved party, only your option is to file an appeal before the appellate court. So consult an advocate, after receiving the judgement copy.
