PIUS C.KURIAKOSE & K.SURENDRA MOHAN, JJ. ------------------------------------------- L.A.Appeal No.712 of 2006 ------------------------------------------- Dated this the 30th day of September, 2009 JUDGMENT Pius C.Kuriakose,J. The appeal is remaining defective on the reason that steps have not been taken to implead the legal representatives of the second respondent, who is reported “dead”. We are not inclined to grant time for curing the defect. We notice that the enhancement granted under the impugned judgment (from Rs.16,490/- per Are to Rs.37,050/- per Are) has been approved by this Court in other cases pertaining to the same acquisition pursuant to the same notification. The appeal is rejected. PIUS C.KURIAKOSE, JUDGE K.SURENDRA MOHAN, JUDGE css/
