THE HONOURABLE SRI JUSTICE A.GOPAL REDDY and THE HONOURABLE SRI JUSTICE RAJA ELANGO A.S.No.2532 of 1999 Date of Judgment: 31-05-2010 Between: The Land Acquisition Officer ..Appellant and 1. Krishnaiah and others ..Respondents The Court made the following Judgment: THE HONOURABLE SRI JUSTICE A.GOPAL REDDY and THE HONOURABLE SRI JUSTICE RAJA ELANGO A.S.No.2532 of 1999 Oral Judgment: (Per Honourable Sri Justice A.Gopal Reddy) The Land Acquisition Officer and Sub-Collector, Gadwal preferred this Appeal questioning the enhancement of compensation made by the Senior Civil Judge, Wanaparthy, in O.P.No.332 of 1994, dated 25-01-1999. An extent Ac.0.11 gts. of land situated in Palem village belonging to the claimants was acquired for construction of canal. The Land Acquisition Officer awarded compensation at the rate of Rs.9,150/- per acre. On reference being made, the reference Court fixed the market value of the acquired land at Rs.15,000/- per acre. Hence the appeal. The value of the appeal itself is Rs.1,608/-. Having regard to the trivial nature of the amount involved, we are not inclined to entertain the appeal and adjudicate the same on merits. The appeal is accordingly dismissed. However, this judgment shall not operate as precedent for the purpose of determining the compensation in respect of other lands, if any, acquired even in the same village, and shall not have any binding precedent value. Further, we have noticed that the appeal has already been dismissed against respondents 1 and 4 for default by order dated 25-04-2006 on failure of the appellant taking steps to serve them by furnishing correct address. There shall be no order as to costs. ________________ A.GOPAL REDDY, J. _____________ RAJA ELANGO,J 31-05-2010 Murthy
