The two applications are only interlocutory applications by which the writ petitioner, who is the petitioner before the Special Court, had prayed to send the registered sale deeds – Exs.B3 and B5 – including the plans attached thereto to the A.P. Forensic Laboratory and to verify whether the site plans and the sale deeds are genuine documents and also to call for the concerned record pertaining to Exs.B3 and B5 from the Office of the District Registrar, Hyderabad. Two members of the Special Court proceeded to dismiss the applications, whereas the third member passed a dissenting order. We are informed that L.G.C.No11 of 2002 is at the final stage. The order impugned is in the interlocutory nature. As such, we are not inclined to entertain the writ petition at this stage and proceed to dismiss the same with liberty reserved to the petitioner to challenge the order impugned in the writ petition along with the final order, if passed against the petitioner in the proceedings to be taken out by the petitioner. Needless to add that the Special Court will take up L.G.C.No.11 of 2002 and decide the same in accordance with law, uninfluenced by the observations made in the order impugned in the writ petition. The Writ Petition is dismissed. No costs. _________________________ DEVINDER GUPTA, C.J. 18-11-2004 ________________ C.V.RAMULU, J prk ASSISTANT REGISTRAR // TRUE COPY // SECTION OFFICER To 1.
