HON'BLE SHRI G.S.SINGHVI, THE CHIEF JUSTICE W.P. NO.13317 OF 1996 Between: K.V.Ramanaiah .....Petitioner AND The Cooperative Tribunal at Hydeabad and others .....Respondents ::ORDER:: Counsel for the Petitioner : Sri K.Chakravarthi for Sri M.V.Durga Prasad Counsel for Respondent No.1 : none Counsel for Respondent No.4 : Government Pleader for Cooperation Dated 12/7/2006 This is a petition for quashing order dated 12.3.1996 passed by the Andhra Pradesh Cooperative Tribunal at Hyderabad in CTA No.14 of 1996, Smt.Banu Bee vs. K.V.Ramainaiah and others. A perusal of the record shows that by an order dated 21.6.2001, the writ petition was dismissed in default qua respondents 2 and 3, one of whom was appellant before the Tribunal and other was respondent No.2. It is also born out from the record that the petitioner did not take any steps for setting aside of order dated 21.6.2001 and restoration of writ petition qua respondents 2 and 3. I have heard learned counsel for the parties. In my opinion, the writ petition is liable to be dismissed because the order under challenge cannot be nullified by the Court without hearing Smt.Banu Bee who was the appellant before the Tribunal and qua whom, as mentioned above, the writ petition was dismissed in default on 21.6.2001. For the reason stated above, the writ petition is dismissed. However, it is hoped that the Arbitrator to whom the case had been remanded by the Tribunal will decide the matter, as early as possible.
