1 FARAD CONTINUATION SHEET NO. IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE AT BOMBAY BENCH AT AURANGABAD. WRIT PETITION NO.8143 OF 2006 Office Notes, Memoranda of Coram, appearances, Court’s orders or directions and Registrar’s orders. Court’s or Judge’s orders. CORAM : A.M. KHANWILKAR, AND S.S. SHINDE, JJ. DATE : 3RD MARCH, 2010 1. Heard Counsel for the parties. 2. The grievance in this Petition is that the Tahsildar had no authority to issue notice dated 30th November, 2006 under section 50(2) of the Maharashtra Land Revenue Code which is impugned in this Petition. According to the petitioners, the Collector has already finally decided the issue in favour of the petitioners as can be noticed from document at Exhibit `D' dated 21st January, 1983. 3. In our opinion, the appropriate course for the petitioners is to approach the Collector and get the position clarified in that behalf. If the Collector is satisfied the 2 notice impugned in this petition has been issued with some ulterior purpose by the Tahsildar would be free to proceed against the Tahsildar in accordance with law. The Collector shall consider the representation filed by the petitioners not later than four weeks from today and communicate about his decision to the petitioners within same time. All questions are kept open. 4. The Collector shall treat the present petition as representation of the petitioners. It is made clear that the Collector shall consider the representation of the petitioners irrespective of the Writ Petition No.8143/2006 in this Court. (S.S. SHINDE, J.) (A.M.
