1 IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE AT BOMBAY APPELLATE SIDE, NAGPUR BENCH, NAGPUR WRIT PETITION NO.3432/2008 Raju Martandrao Deshmukh ...Versus... Bandu Ramrao Gawande and others -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Office Notes, Office Memoranda of Coram, appearances, Court's Orders or Court's or Judge's Orders directions and Registrar's orders. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- [Shri Sameer Sohoni, Adv. for petitioner] CORAM:- A.B. CHAUDHARI, J. DATED :- 06.08.2008 Heard learned Counsel for the petitioner at length. Learned Counsel for the petitioner argued that Additional Commissioner was not empowered to hear the appeal that was filed by the petitioner. In the first place, the petitioner ought to have objected to Additional Commissioner hearing appeal before him only if at all he wanted to raise such point. Secondly, the Additional Commissioner does possess a power of the Commissioner in accordance with Section 13 (3) of the Maharashtra Land Revenue Code, 1966. The Courts below have concurrently recorded a finding 2 that cash amount of Rs.905/- towards consideration for purchase of fodder was received personally by the petitioner. The defence of the petitioner that it was meant for somebody else has not been accepted by the Courts below and that is a concurrent finding. Hence, I do not find any merit in the petition. The same is, therefore, dismissed. No order as to costs. JUDGE ssw
