"3. I humbly submit that myself and 2nd appellant Sri Yalamarti Venkata Krishna Rao filed the suit in O.S.No.47/1985 against unofficial respondents 1 and 2 and one Smt. Bobba Ammanna (died) for specific performance of agreement of sale dt:16.10.1983 executed by Sri Bobba Venkateswara Rao who is father of respondent No.1 and for incidental reliefs on the file of Principal Senior Civil Judge's Court, Eluru, W.G. District, in respect of an extent of Ac.4.83 ½ cents situated in R.S.No.35 and subdivided R.S.No.35/2 of Ramannagudem village, Dwaraka Tirumala Mandal, W.G.Dist. The Hon'ble Court passed decree and judgment dt:17.12.2015 on merits in the above suit in favour of the appellants allowing the same.

mentioned property therein i.e., the properties covered under specific performance suits at the instance of respondents 1 and 2 and others on the pretext that they are G.P.A. holders of respondents 1 and 2 and others. Myself and my brothers contested the suit and the Hon'ble Principal Senior Civil Judge's Court, Eluru pleased to dismiss the suit in O.S.No.40/2018 by the decree and judgment dt:15.02.2019 observing in para 13 of the judgment that we are in exclusive possession and enjoyment of schedule property therein since 1983 i.e., since the dates of agreement of sales. However no appeal is filed by the plaintiffs therein against the said decree and it became final.
7. I humbly submit that aggrieved by the said decrees in O.S.No.47/1985 and 48/1985 the respondents 1 and 2 and others filed appeals in Appeals Nos.08/2016 and 09/2016 on the file of the VII Additional District Judge cum Family Court Judge, West Godavari, Eluru and the same are pending."
A perusal of the aforesaid paragraphs would go to show that in respect of the survey numbers as mentioned in the writ petition, there are civil litigations involving the present appellants. There was no averment in the writ petition with regard to the aforesaid factual matrix.
In that view of the matter, we are of the considered opinion that leave to appeal ought to be granted. Accordingly, leave is granted.
I.A. No.2 of 2021 is allowed and disposed of.
