They submitted explanations. Thereafter, the Mandal Revenue Officer passed orders of eviction under Section 6 of the Act. They filed appeals before the Revenue Divisional Officer, Khammam. They have also filed applications for interim orders. Their grievance is that the Revenue Divisional Officer, Khammam, the first respondent, has not passed any orders for stay so far, and that in the meanwhile, the second respondent is trying to evict them. Heard the learned counsel for the petitioners and the learned Government Pleader for Revenue. The petitioners availed the statutory remedy of appeal aggrieved by the orders of eviction. Unless interim orders are passed in favour of the petitioners during pendency of the appeals, they are likely to be evicted and in such an event, the appeals themselves would become infructuous. Hence, the writ petitions are disposed of, directing that the orders of eviction passed against the petitioners shall remain suspended pending disposal of the appeals before the first respondent. There shall be no order as to costs. _________________________ (L.NARASIMHA REDDY, J) 25th MAY, 2006. Note: furnish c.c. in two days. B/o kvni/kdl
