The plaintiff initiated the action in 0.S.No.260 of 2009 on the file of the
Additional Senior Civil Judge, Ananthapur seeking declaration of title and
permanent injunction against the defendants in interfering with the peaceful
possession and enjoyment of the plaintiff over the suit schedule property. Upon
contesting of the matter, the Trial Court decreed the suit vide its Judgment dated
30.07.2016. Aggrieved by the same, the defendant preferred A.S.No.55 of 2016
on the file of the Special Sessions Judge for Trail of SC and ST Cases - cum - VIII
Additional Sessions Judge, Ananthapuramu. Upon hearing the matter, the lower
appellate Court allowed the said appeal reversing the Judgment and decree of the
trial Court vide its Judgment dated 04.12.2020. Assailing the same, the legal
representatives of the deceased plaintiff came in 2™¢ appeal before this Court
raising substantial question of law as follows.
1. 'Having regard to the fact that the land was situated in an estate and
the provisions of the Estate Abolition Act are applicable and the
settlement patta was granted in favour of the vendor of the appellant
and the same is a title to the property, whether the lower appellate
court acted legally in holding that the plaintiff has failed to establish
his right title and possession over the suit property?.
2. In the absence of any specific denial with regard to the title of the
plaintiff, whether the lower appellate court acted legally in holding
that the plaintiff has failed to prove title to the property on the basis
of the recitals in Ex.A1 and Ex.A2?
3. Whether the appreciation and finding of the lower appellate Court in
reversing the Judgment and decree of the Trial Court is perverse?
In view of the above said circumstances, there shall be an order of status-
quo as on today with respect to the suit schedule property until further orders.
The learned counsel for the appellants is permitted to take out personal
notice to the respondents and file proof of service in the Registry, within a period
of three(3) weeks from today.
List the matter after four(4) weeks."
