C.M.Appln.No.2231/2008: This is an application to condone the delay of 1062 days in filing the appeal. The appeal is filed against the judgment and decree in L.A.R.No.108/1999 on the file of the Sub Court, Mavelikara. Acquisition is for the purpose of NTPC, Kayamkulam. It is not in dispute that the requisitioning authority has filed a separate appeal in respect of the judgment under appeal. Therefore, it is not necessary for the State to pursue the appeal. Hence the application for condonation of delay and the appeal are dismissed without prejudice to the liberty to the State to take all available contentions in the appeal filed by the requisitioning authority. I.A.No.4894/2008: Dismissed. KURIAN JOSEPH JUDGE K.T. SANKARAN JUDGE smp KURIAN JOSEPH & K.T. SANKARAN, JJ. L.A.A. No.2172 OF 2008 J U D G M E N T 03.12.2008
