IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE, ANDHRA PRADESH AT HYDERABAD (Special Original Jurisdiction) PRESENT: THE HON’BLE MR. JUSTICE C.V.NAGARJUNA REDDY THURSDAY, THE ELEVENTH DAY OF FEBRUARY, TWO THOUSAND TEN WRIT PETITION No.7508 of 2002 Between: M.Umapathaiah. … Petitioner And The Assistant Commissioner, Endowments Department, Mahabubnagar District (AP) … Respondent. Counsel for the petitioner: Sri T.Chandrasekhara Rao for Sri A.K.Jayaprakash Rao. Counsel for the respondent: AGP for Endowments. This Court made the following: ORDER:- This Writ Petition is filed for a Mandamus to set aside proceedings dated 12-4-2002 issued by the respondent, whereby the earlier proceedings dated 14- 8-1998 - under which the petitioner was appointed as Single Member Trustee in Sri Nandeeshwara and Shaneshwara Swamy Temple, Vaddeman village, Bijinepally Mandal, Mahabubnagar District, for a period of one year or till a trust Board is constituted, whichever is earlier - was cancelled. From a perusal of order, dated 14-8-1998, it is evident that the period for which the petitioner was appointed as Single Member Trustee of the said temple had expired with the lapse of one year on 14-8-1999. Strictly speaking, the question of cancellation of the said non-existent order did not arise and to that effect the impugned dated 12-4-2002 was redundant. In view of the same, no cause survives for adjudication in this Writ Petition. The Writ Petition is accordingly dismissed. ------------------------------------ C.V.NAGARJUNA REDDY,J Date:11-2-2010 MNR
