THE HON'BLE MR JUSTICE L.NARASIMHA REDDY Writ Petition No.1512 of 2010 ORDER: The petitioner claims rights vis-à-vis the land in T.D.No.3072 of Narava Village, Pendurthy Mandal, Visakhapatnam District. She filed O.S.No.293 of 2009 in the Court of VI Additional District Judge, Visakhapatnam against the 2nd respondent and others for partition. It is alleged that some of the family members of the petitioner alienated substantial extent of the land in favour of respondents 3 to 5 and the latter in turn were granted ryotwari pattas under the A.P.(Andhra Area) Inams (Abolition and Conversion of Ryotwari) Act. The petitioner contends that though the 2nd respondent preferred an appeal against the ryotwari pattas granted in favour of respondents 3 to 5 before the 1st respondent, he is not pursuing the matter with the required amount of vigor. The petitioner complains that the 1st respondent is proceeding to decide the appeal in her absence and seeks appropriate directions in this regard. Heard the learned counsel for the petitioner, learned Government Pleader for Revenue and the learned counsel appearing for respondents 3 to 5. The writ petition was listed for admission on 29.01.2010. On that day, a direction was issued to the effect that it shall be open to the petitioner to file an application to implead before the 1st respondent and that the further steps in the appeal shall be deferred by one week. It is brought to the notice of this Court that the petitioner has since submitted an application to implead her on 29.01.2010. With this, the grievance of the petitioner stands redressed. The writ petition is accordingly closed, directing the 1st respondent to take the application filed by the petitioner into account before proceeding further in the matter. There shall be no order as to costs. __________ 04.02.2010 JSU THE HON'BLE MR JUSTICE L.NARASIMHA REDDY Writ Petition No.1512 of 2010 Date: 04.02.2010 jsu
