"Perused the entire record. This petition is filed with a prayer to recall the fixed deposit by enabling the petitioner to withdraw an amount of Rs.29,35,387/- along with accrued interest.
IN the accompanying affidavit the petitioner averred that the Hon'ble High court while granting interim suspension of judgment and decree dated 28-04-2011 directed the respondent to deposit 1/3rd of the awarded amount and on such deposit the second respondent is permitted to withdraw 50% of the said amount without furnishing any security.
On perusal of the documents filed along with the application found that the Hon'ble High court permitted the petitioner herein to withdraw 50% of the amount without furnishing security, accordingly A.P Backward classes cooperative finance limited deposited an amount of Rs.58,70,773/- vide Demand draft dated 14-11-2012 in to the credit of OP.1963/2002. The petitioner in his affidavit deposited that the said Backward classes cooperative finance ltd deposited an amount of Rs.58,70,773/-. Thereafter he has withdrawn an amount of Rs.29,35,386/- by way of filing a petition under rule 231 and 232 of Civil Rules of practice in the year 2012 itself i.e. 50% of the deposited amount.
It is evident from the affidavit of the petitioner, the documents placed along with the affidavit and as per the orders of Hon'ble High court the petitioner is entitled to withdraw the 50% of the deposited amount only and the said amount was already withdrawn by the petitioner in the year 2012 itself. It is also evident from the record, the appeal is still pending and there is no further orders in 3 HCJ & CVBRJ C.R.P.No.1383 of 2022
respect of withdrawal of the balance 50% amount, which are lying in the O.P account as per the endorsement of Accounts section. Therefore the petitioner is not entitled for relief. The petition is devoid of merits.
In the result, the petition is dismissed."
4. When the revision petition was moved, this Court
on 17.08.2022 had passed the following order:
"In I.A.No.179 of 2022 filed in O.P.No.1963 of 2002, the XIV Additional Chief Judge (FTC), City Civil Court, Hyderabad rejected the application to withdraw balance 50% of the amount already deposited by the respondents on the ground that the order passed by this Court on 25.02.2022 in I.A.No.2 of 2012 in C.M.A.M.P.No.1434 of 2012 in CMA.No.820 of 2011, does not deal with permission to withdraw the balance amount.
Prima-facie, we are of the opinion that the Court below has erred in not understanding the scope of order passed by this Court on 17.08.2012 and further orders passed on 25.02.2022.
On 17.08.2012, this Court granted interim stay subject to petitioner therein depositing 1/3rd of the awarded amount, with liberty to the petitioner herein to withdraw 50% of the said amount without furnishing any security. By virtue of the order passed by this Court, on 25.02.2022, the said order stood vacated. Therefore, there is no embargo on the petitioner seeking withdrawal of the balance amount already deposited. Balance of convenience is in favour of the petitioner herein.

Hence, there shall be interim direction as prayed for."

following the order dated 17.08.2022, petitioner has applied
for withdrawal of balance 50% amount and the cheque
petition is pending before the XIV Additional Chief Judge
(FTC), City Civil Court, Hyderabad. To that extent, nothing
further survives for adjudication in the revision petition.
