Cinematograph Rules 1970 was questioned by the appellants in the writ petition. Learned single Judge dismissed the writ petition and appeal is against the said order. Learned single Judge noticed the fact that the appellants had already filed a suit for partition and therefore, clarified that if the appellants would succeed in the suit, they may get the right to be included as successors to the property but till then they have no right whatsoever to object for transfer of licence. Having considered the submissions made before us by the learned counsel for the appellants, we find no substance in the appeal. We find no reason to interfere with the order of the learned single Judge. We dismiss the appeal by making an observation that the transfer of licence in favour of respondents 3 to 7 pursuant to the order dated 6-1-1999 will abide by the result of the partition suit stated to have been filed by the appellants. Ordered accordingly. ___________________ DEVINDER GUPTA, CJ 28-10-2004 _____________ C.V.RAMULU, J To 1 The Secretary, Government of Andhra Pradesh, Department of Home & Cinematography, Secretariat Buildings, Hyderabad. 2 The District Joint Collector & Licensing Authority, Under A.P.
