Writ Appeal No.1615 of 2011 .................................................................... Dated this the 1st day of December, 2011. JUDGMENT Ramachandran Nair, J. Appeal is filed against judgment of the learned Single Judge rejecting the appellant's right to retain electricity connection taken in his name in the building belonging to third respondent. Even though appellant's case is that his application for getting 10 cents of land as kudikidappu from third respondent is pending before the Land Tribunal, third respondent's case is that the appellant was a casual employee engaged by him and the building given for free residence is now occupied by him along with 30 cents of land wherein he got an unauthorised electric connection. The learned Single Judge has gone into the details of the claim and the counter claims and found that there is no bonafide in appellant's claim. He also noticed that even according to the appellant, the application for kudikidappu is filed only on 10.8.2009. Even though we do not want to go into the maintainability or genuineness of the same, we are satisfied that case is established that 2 the appellant is prima facie not entitled to title or ownership of the building or the land adjoining thereto entitling for electricity connection in his name. We, therefore, do not find any merit in the Writ Appeal and the same is accordingly dismissed. C.N.RAMACHANDRAN NAIR Judge K.VINOD CHANDRAN Judge pms
