IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE, ANDHRA PRADESH AT HYDERABAD SATURDAY, THE TWENTY NINTH DAY OF JANUARY TWO THOUSAND AND ELEVEN PRESENT THE HON'BLE SRI JUSTICE V.ESWARAIAH SECOND APPEAL No.361 of 2010 Between: Gadela Siva Prasad ..... APPELLANT/DEFENDANT AND Yellapu Narasinga Rao .....RESPONDENT/PLAINTIFF The Court made the following: THE HON'BLE SRI JUSTICE V.ESWARAIAH SECOND APPEAL No.361 of 2010 JUDGMENT: The appellant is the defendant. The respondent herein filed suit O.S.1/95 on the file of the Principal Junior Civil Judge, Yellamanchili for recovery of a sum of Rs.14,449/- based on promissory note dated 21.01.1994 said to have been executed by the petitioner and the said suit was decreed on 06.01.2003. Aggrieved by the same, the petitioner filed A.S.2/2003 on the file of the Senior Civil Judge, Yellamanchili and the lower appellate Court by judgment and decree dated 27.10.2004 dismissed the appeal. Aggrieved by the same, this second appeal is filed under Sec.100 CPC. Under Sec.102 CPC no appeal shall lie from any decree, when the subject matter of the original suit is for recovery of money not exceeding Rs.25,000/-. Therefore, I am of the opinion that as the original suit is for recovery of Rs.14,449/- i.e. less than Rs.25,000/-, this second appeal is not maintainable. Both the Courts below, on merits, concurrently recorded a finding that the plaintiff established his case and the defendant is liable to pay the suit amount along with subsequent interest. In view of the concurrent findings of both the Courts below, I do not see any question of law, much less substantial questions of law that arises for consideration in this second appeal. The Second Appeal is dismissed at the stage of admission. No order as to costs. ___________________ V.ESWARAIAH,J Dated: 29.01.2011 Dsr
