The applicants/original claimants had filed an application for enhancement in the amount of compensation under section 18 of the Land Acquistion Act, 1984, before the Special Land Acquisition Officer. :2: :2: :2: The said application was transferred to the learned District Judge and in turn to the reference court. Such application was numbered as Land AcquisitionReference No. 110 of 1987 and was partly allowed by the reference court by the judgment and award passed on January 15, 1994. This order, is the subject matter of the First Appeal (St) No. 7756 of 1994. This First Appeal, seems to have been dismissed. The applicants by this application, are seeking the quashment of the said order passed on June 4, 1996. In other words, the applicants are seeking now the restoration of the First Appeal on its positiopn on the date of dismissal. 3.
