HON’BLE SRI JUSTICE A.GOPAL REDDY AND HON’BLE SRI JUSTICE G.V.SEETHAPATHY DT. 21-4-2010 AS No.3099/1999 The Sub-Collector (Land Acquisition Officer), Tenali …Appellant V. D. Umarani ..Respondent The Court made the following: HON’BLE SRI JUSTICE A.GOPAL REDDY AND HON’BLE SRI JUSTICE G.V.SEETHAPATHY AS No.3099/99 JUDGMENT: (Per the Hon’ble Sri Justice A. Gopal Reddy) This appeal is left over while considering AS No.2911/1997 and batch, which was disposed of on 26-2-1998. Learned Principle Subordinate Judge (Now Principal Senior Civil Judge), Tenali by common order dt. 20-4-1989 allowed OP Nos.136/86 to 145/1986, 31/87 and 32/87 and fixed the compensation at Rs.15000/- per acre besides statutory benefits, for the lands acquired in the village Chinaravuru. Questioning the said enhancement, the Land Acquisition Officer filed AS Nos.1703/94, 1802/95, 1681/92, 3099/99, 1124/93, 2911/97 and 1901/1995 against the common judgment passed in OP Nos.137, 138, 140, 141, 144, 145 of 1986 and 32/1987 respectively. AS Nos.1703/94, 1802/95, 1681/92, 1124/93, 2911/97 and 1901/1995 were allowed by this court on 26-2-1998 setting aside the common judgment and decrees passed by the leaned Senior Civil Judge and remanded the matter to the reference court granting liberty to both parties to lead further evidence and on leading such evidence, the reference court shall dispose of the matter afresh. On such remand, LAOP Nos.137, 138, 140, 144 and 145 of 1986 and LAOP No.32/1987 were disposed of the learned Senior Civil Judge by common order dt. 21-8-1999 closing the reference on the ground that even before the LAOPs were disposed of by this court, the Land Acquisition Officer deposited the compensation amount awarded by the reference court and the same was withdrawn by the claimants by filing cheque petitions. The present appeal, AS No.3099/1999, which is filed, against the very same common judgment passed in OP No.141/1986 dt.20-4-1989 has not been disposed of along with said batch ie., AS No.2911/97 and batch dt. 26-2-1998 by mistake. Learned Government Pleader for Appeals submits that against the enhancement made in the common judgment dt. 20-4-1989 passed in OP Nos. 136, 139, 142,143 of 1986 and OP No.31/87, no appeals were preferred. In effect, compensation fixed at Rs.15,000/- for the lands covered by above OPs has become final. Learned Government Pleader further represents that he has no instructions whether compensation awarded in the above remaining OPs were deposited and withdrawn by the claimants or not. It is to be noted here the respondent/claimant, pursuant to the deposit of the compensation awarded by the reference court by the Land Acquisition Officer even before disposal of the matters on remand by this court, withdrew the same on 2-5-1992. Having regard to the fact that the compensation fixed in the above OPs has become final, this appeal is also liable to be dismissed. The Appeal Suit is accordingly dismissed. There shall be no order as to costs. _______________ A. GOPAL REDDY, J __________________ ‐ G.V.SEETHAPATHY,J Date:-21-4-2010 kmr .
