THE HON'BLE MR JUSTICE L.NARASIMHA REDDY WRIT PETITION No : 1635 of 2009 ORDER: The 1st respondent passed individual orders dated 06.12.2008 against the petitioners, directing resumption of lands purchased by them, in exercise of power under Section 4 of the A.P. Assigned Lands (Prohibition of Transfers) Act, 1977 (for short ‘the Act’). The petitioners claim that they presented appeals before the 2nd respondent together with the applications for stay. The grievance of the petitioners is that even while the appeals are pending, the respondents are trying to dispossess them from the land. Heard the learned counsel for the petitioners and the learned Government Pleader for Revenue. The petitioners availed the statutory remedy of appeal under Section 4-A of the Act before the 2nd respondent. For all practical purposes, an appeal is continuation of original proceedings. In case, the petitioners are dispossessed from the land, during the pendency of the appeals, nothing remains to be decided. Therefore, the writ petition is disposed of directing that the respondents shall not dispossess the petitioners from the lands, which are the subject matter of orders dated 06.12.2008, till the 2nd respondent disposes of the appeals. There shall be no order as to costs. _________ 03.02.2009 Note: Issue C.C. in three days. (B/o) JSU THE HON'BLE MR JUSTICE L.NARASIMHA REDDY WRIT PETITION No : 1635 of 2009 Date: 03.02.2009 JSU
