the petitioners.

that subsequent to the orders of the Revenue Divisional Officer, the

second petitioner, who is the wife of the deceased first petitioner, filed

a suit in O.S.No.220 of 2007 before the Principal District Munsif

Court, Valliyoor, seeking declaration and injunction with regard to the

same lands in Survey No.222. The Principal District Munsif,

Valliyoor, by Judgment and Decree dated 11.02.2011, dismissed the

suit. Aggrieved over the same, she also filed an appeal before the Sub

Court, Valliyoor, in A.S.No.47 of 2011, which was also dismissed by

Judgment and Decree dated 13.06.2016. The learned counsel has also

produced a copy of the Judgments in O.S.No.220 of 2007 and A.S.No.

47 of 2011.

4. In view of the subsequent development and since the issue has

already been decided by the Civil Courts, nothing survives for

adjudication in this writ petition. Accordingly, the writ petition is

dismissed. It is always open to the petitioners to work out their remedy

before the appropriate forum in the manner known to law. No costs.

Consequently, connected miscellaneous petition is closed.
