BARKATH ALI, JJ. ------------------------------------------------ L. A. A. No.594 of 2008 ------------------------------------------------ Dated this the 29th day of July, 2009 JUDGMENT Pius C. Kuriakose, J This appeal remains defective on the reason that the first respondent/claimant is yet to be served with notice. On going through the impugned judgment, we find that the approach of the learned Subordinate Judge towards determining the market value of the land under acquisition was quite reasonable. The learned Judge did not relied on any of the documents produced by the claimant. The learned Judge relied on the basis document itself and made additions towards passage of time. According to us, it is more or less the correct market value of the property at the relevant time which has been arrived at by the learned Sub L. A. A. No.594 of 2008 -2- Judge. Appeal accordingly, will stand dismissed. PIUS C. KURIAKOSE JUDGE P. Q. BARKATH ALI JUDGE kns/-
