(*)THE LEGAL HEIRS OF DECEASED SOLE RESPONDENT ARE IMPLEADED AS ADDL.RESPONDENT NOS.2 TO 9 VIDE ORDER DATED 5.4.2010 IN IA 329/10 IN CRP 6/2008. THIS CIVIL REVISION PETITION HAVING BEEN FINALLY HEARD ON 03/06/2010, THE COURT ON THE SAME DAY PASSED THE FOLLOWING: THOMAS P. JOSEPH, J. -------------------------------------- C.R.P.No.6 of 2008 -------------------------------------- Dated this the 3rd day of June, 2010. JUDGMENT State has filed this revision petition challenging the order dated 09.04.2001 in TLB.857/73/Hos. of the Taluk Land Board, Hosdurg. 2. It is seen that respondent herein had expired even before Taluk Land Board passed the impugned order on 09.04.2002 and that the said order was passed without impleading legal representatives of deceased respondent. As such order dated 09.04.2002 is a nullity. Hence this revision petition cannot be sustained. State has to request the Taluk Land Board to re-open the proceedings, implead legal representatives of deceased respondent and after giving them opportunity of hearing dispose of the proceedings afresh. Civil Revision Petition is disposed of with the above observation. THOMAS P.JOSEPH, Judge. cks
