THE HON'BLE THE CHIEF JUSTICE ALOK ARADHE
AND
THE HON'BLE SRI JUSTICE N.V.SHRAVAN KUMAR
WRIT APPEAL Nos.304 and 320 of 2023
COMMON JUDGMENT: (Per the Hon'ble the Chief Justice Alok Aradhe)
Mr. T. Sharath, learned counsel for the appellants.
Mr. P. Ram Prasad, learned Government Pleader for Social
Welfare for respondent Nos.1 and 2 in W.A.No.304 of 2023 and
for respondent Nos.1 to 4 in W.A.No.320 of 2023.
Mr. M. Muralikrishna, learned counsel appears on behalf of
Mr. M.M.M. Srinivas, learned counsel for the unofficial
respondent in both the appeals.
2. With the consent of the parties, the matters are heard
finally.
3. These intra court appeals have been filed against common
order dated 05.01.2023 passed by the learned Single Judge by
which W.P.Nos.40600 of 2022 and 2470 of 2020 preferred by the
appellants have been disposed of.
4. The grievance of the appellants is that initiation of
proceedings by the Agent to Government (District Collector) in ::2::
respect of the subject land is without jurisdiction as the matter
has already been adjudicated four times in their favour.
5. The appellants filed the writ petitions seeking a direction to
the Agent to Government (District Collector) not to proceed
further with the matter and to declare the proceedings dated
30.11.2019 as illegal and arbitrary as the subject matter has
already been adjudicated in their favour on previous four
occasions.
6. We have heard the learned counsel for the parties at
length.
7. From a perusal of the record, it transpires that the issue
involved in these writ appeals is that the Agent to Government
(District Collector) has initiated proceedings which have already
been adjudicated on previous four occasions in favour of the
appellants.
8. In compliance with the order passed by the learned Single
Judge, the appellants have already filed all the documents in
support of their contention that the matter stands concluded in
their favour in the previous round of litigation.
::3::
9. In view of the aforesaid, the Agent to Government (District
Collector) by taking into account the salutary principle of finality
to the litigation shall decide the suit preferred by the unofficial
respondent in these appeals after hearing the parties and
considering the objections filed by the appellants along with
relevant documents. The objections shall be filed within a period
of three months from today.
10. To the aforesaid extent, the order passed by the learned
Single Judge is modified.
11. Accordingly, the writ appeals are disposed of.
As a sequel, miscellaneous petitions, pending if any, stand
closed.
