The writ petitioner has called in question the notice dated 05-11-1996 issued under Section 6 of the Land Encroachment Act. The respondent-Mandal Revenue Officer, Velgode Mandal has issued the said notice pointing out that the petitioner has encroached upon half cent of land situated in Survey No.439 of Velgode Village. The learned Government Pleader for Revenue has asserted that the writ petitioner was already evicted from the land encroached upon by him, pursuant to the impugned order and before filing of the above Writ Petition, therefore, the cause in this Writ Petition does not survive for further adjudication. Recording the same, the Writ Petition is dismissed, but however, without costs. __________________________ (Nooty Ramamohana Rao, J) 23rd November, 2006 LUR
