Counsel for the Petitioners: MR.P.GANGA RAMI REDDY Counsel for the Respondents: GP FOR REVENUE The Court made the following : ORDER: It is the case of the petitioners that the 2nd respondent - Tahsildar, Ozili Mandal, Nellore District without any notice to them cancelled the assignment granted in their favour vide proceedings dated 4.7.2007 and assailing the said orders, they preferred appeals before the 1st respondent - Sub-Collector, Gudur, Nellore District . The 1st respondent though taken up the appeals, rejected the stay applications vide proceedings dated 11.2.2008. The grievance of the petitioners is that if no stay orders are granted, the appeals would virtually become infructuous. Heard the learned counsel for the petitioners as well as the learned Government Pleader for Revenue. Since admittedly the appeals preferred by the petitioners are taken up by the 1st respondent and still pending adjudication, it is appropriate to direct the Sub- Collector to pass final orders in the appeals. Till such time, the order dated 4.7.2007 passed by the 2nd respondent shall not be given effect to. With the above direction, the writ petition is disposed of. No costs.
