THIS LAND ACQUISITION APPEAL HAVING BEEN FINALLY HEARD ON 24/06/2009, THE COURT ON THE SAME DAY DELIVERED THE FOLLOWING: PIUS.C.KURIAKOSE & P.Q.BARKATH ALI, JJ. - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - L.A.A.No. 558 OF 2007 - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - Dated this the 24th day of June, 2009 JUDGMENT Pius.C.Kuriakose, J. This appeal is remaining defective on the reason that service of notice on respondent No.5 is not completed yet. But it is seen that respondent No.5 was the direct sister of respondents 3 to 7 and the daughter of respondent No.2. Thus the interest of respondent No.5 in the subject matter of the appeal is represented sufficiently by her siblings and mother who have already been served with notice. The appeal need not be treated as defective. Several grounds have been raised in this appeal and some of them are attractive. However, we are not inclined to examine the merits of the matter since we notice that the total stakes involved in this appeal is only Rs. 14,844.4. In view of the smallness of the stakes involved in this appeal, this appeal will stand dismissed. However, it is made clear that this judgment will not be quoted as a precedent for any other case.
