THE HON'BLE SRI JUSTICE RAMESH RANGANATHAN WRIT PETITION No.24664 OF 2011 ORDER: Questioning the proceedings of the third respondent dated 21.03.2011 the first respondent preferred a revision to the second respondent who, by order dated 02.08.2011, stayed the proceedings of the third respondent. While the petitioner contends that a vacate stay petition has been filed subsequently, I see no reason to issue a direction to dispose of the stay petition in as much as the Learned Government Pleader for Revenue (Andhra and Rayalaseema Areas), on instructions, would submit that the revision itself was listed for hearing on 03.09.2011 and, in as much as the petitioner’s counsel was absent, the matter stood adjourned to 24.09.2011. Since an order of stay has been passed which affects the petitioner’s rights, I consider it appropriate to direct the second respondent to hear and dispose of the revision petition filed before him at the earliest, in any event not beyond 31.10.2011. Needless to state that both the petitioner and the first respondent shall be put on notice, and be given an opportunity of being heard before the revision is disposed of. It is made clear that, in case either party does not avail such an opportunity, it is open to the second respondent to pass final orders in the revision petition on the basis of the material on record. The Writ Petition stands disposed of accordingly. However, in the circumstances, without costs. _____________________________ RAMESH RANGANATHAN, J September 09, 2011 MD THE HON'BLE SRI JUSTICE RAMESH RANGANATHAN WRIT PETITION No.24664 OF 2011 September 09, 2011 MD
