DATED :

ORAL JUDGMENT : (PER B. P. DHARMADHIKARI, J.)
1. Heard Shri Bhide, learned counsel for
appellant/original petitioner and Shri Mohokar, learned counsel for
respondent.
2. Shri Mohokar, learned counsel has relied upon the
Judgment in the case of Ram Kishan Fauji Vrs. State of Haryana and
others, reported at 2017 (5) SCC 533 to urge that the proceedings
filed before the learned Single Judge could not have been treated under
Article 226 of the Constitution of India and being only under Article
227, the present Letters Patent Appeal is not maintainable.
2 J-LPA-8-10.odt
3. Shri Bhide, learned counsel does not dispute this. He
further states that when the proceedings were filed, both the Articles
were mentioned and had this law been then in force, the appellant
could have thought of something else. He submits that today, as it is
Letters Patent Appeal and the Writ Petition is disposed of even a request
for treating it as Revision under Section 115 of the Code of Civil
Procedure, cannot be made.
4. The law on the point is well-settled. Here, the execution
proceedings filed by the appellant has been disposed of by accepting
objection raised by the respondent vide Exh.16. The said order was
questioned before the Single Judge in Writ Petition styled as one under
Articles 226 and 227 of the Constitution with specific prayer for writ of
certiorari or any other appropriate writ.
5. In the light of the law as settled by the Hon'ble Apex
Court, it is apparent that the present Letters Patent Appeal is not
therefore, maintainable. It is accordingly, rejected. No costs.
