THE HON’BLE Ms. JUSTICE G. ROHINI WRIT PETITION No.2624 OF 1998 ORAL ORDER: This writ petition is filed aggrieved by the notice dated 19.1.1998 issued by the Mandal Revenue Officer, Ramasamudram, Chittoor district, proposing to cancel the patta granted in favoaur of the petitioner to an extent of Ac.2.41 cents of land situated in Sy.No.83/2, Gajjalavaripalle village, Ramasamudram mandal, Chittoor district. This Court while directing Rule nisi by order dated 4.2.1998 ordered that status quo obtaining as on that day shall be maintained until further orders and that the said order has been in operation throughout. In response to the Rule nisi ordered, the respondent- Mandal Revenue Officer, Ramasamudram, filed a counter affidavit stating that during the pendency of this writ petition, the Joint Collector, Chittoor has issued a show cause notice dated 16.4.1998, calling upon the petitioner to show cause as to why the patta should not be cancelled, however, since the petitioner did not respond, the Joint Collector, Chittor, passed an order dated 10.2.1999 cancelling the assignment. Thus, it is clear that as on today, the patta granted in favour of the petitioner stood cancelled long back. Since the cause of action does not survive on account of the events that took place pending the writ petition, no further enquiry is necessary. Accordingly, the writ petition is disposed of granting leave and liberty to the petitioner to challenge the order of cancellation dated 10.2.1999 by working out appropriate remedy as available under law. No costs. Having regard to the fact that the order of status quo granted by this Court on 4.2.1998 has been in operation throughout, it is made clear that the same shall be continued for a period of eight weeks from today. __________ (G.
