THE HON'BLE SRI JUSTICE RAMESH RANGANATHAN WRIT PETITION No.21934 OF 2011 ORDER: By the proceedings of the second respondent dated 21.07.2011, under challenge in this Writ Petition, the petitioner was prohibited from exhibiting films in the cinema theatre until further orders. The said order dated 21.07.2011 is based on the report of the Tahsildar, Amalapuram, and the interim order of injunction granted by the Principal Junior Civil Judge, Amalapuram in O.S.No.115 of 2011 against the petitioner herein. Sri B. Narasimha Sarma, Learned Counsel for the Petitioner, would submit that, after the Writ Petition was filed, the interim injunction granted earlier by the Principal Junior Civil Judge was vacated by order dated 08.08.2011 and, consequently, the petitioner has submitted a representation seeking the second respondent’s permission to permit them to continue exhibiting films. It is evident from the material on record that a temporary licence was granted for exhibition of films in the cinema theatre for a period of three months. It is the case of the petitioner that the temporary licence has been renewed periodically from time to time. Be that as it may, the temporary licence now issued on 03.06.2011 is due to expire on 31.08.2011. The petitioner theatre was owned by Smt. K. Suseelamma and, after her demise, family disputes have arisen between Sri B.N.V.R.G. Narasimha Rao (who represents the petitioner – theatre), on the one hand, and the third respondent on the other. Both of them claim the right to exhibit films in the said theatre. While several contentions are put forth by Sri B. Narasimha Sarma Learned Counsel for the petitioner, the Learned Government Pleader for Home appearing on behalf of the respondents 1 and 2, and Sri K. S. Murthy Learned Counsel appearing on behalf of the third respondent, it is wholly unnecessary for this Court to examine any of these rival contentions in the light of the events which have taken place subsequent to the filing of the Writ Petition. It is open to the petitioner and the third respondent to raise all the contentions urged before this Court, or such other contentions they may choose to urge, before the second respondent. The third respondent may submit her objections on or before 20.08.2011 and, if she does so, the said objections should also be taken into consideration and dealt with, by the second respondent while passing his order. It is made clear that this order shall not be construed as requiring the second respondent to renew the temporary licence after 31.08.2011 and any decision, which he may take in this regard, shall be in accordance with law and without being influenced by any observations made in this order. The second respondent shall consider the petitioner’s representation, and the objections of the third respondent if any made, thereto in accordance with law and pass orders there upon, latest by 23.08.2011. The Writ Petition is, accordingly, disposed of. However, in the circumstances, without costs. _____________________________ RAMESH RANGANATHAN, J August 17, 2011 Note: Issue C.C. by tomorrow.
