ORDER:(per Hon’ble BRSR,J) The subject matter that arises for consideration in this writ petition is squarely covered by an authoritative pronouncement rendered by a Larger Bench of this Court in W.P.No.15260 of 2003 and batch, dated 07-10-2004. The writ petitioner invoked the jurisdiction of a Special Court constituted under A.P. Land Grabbing (Prohibition) Act at Hyderabad, making an allegation that the respondents therein were making an attempt to grab the application schedule property. The Special Court is not clothed with jurisdiction to hear any matters based on the allegations of attempt to grab the land. In such view of the matter, the writ petition deserves dismissal and the same shall accordingly stand dismissed without any order as to costs. This order shall not preclude the petitioners to avail such remedies as may be available to them in law, in which event, the matter shall have to be considered on its own merits uninfluenced by the dismissal of the writ petition and as well as the dismissal of the LGC by the Special Court. ___________________________ B.SUDERSHAN REDDY, J 4th February, 2005 _________________ C.V.RAMULU, J vs/msv To 1 The Special Court Constituted under A.P.
