CIVIL APPELLATE JURISDICTION
CIVIL APPEAL NOS.3888-3889 OF 2001
P.S.Ramakrishna Reddy & Anr. ...Appellants
VERSUS
Authorised Officer, Land
Reforms, A.P. ...Respondent
ORDER
1. These appeals are directed against the
judgment and order dated 7th of December, 1999
passed by the High Court of Judicature of Andhra
Pradesh at Hyderabad in Civil Revision Petition
Nos.1662 and 1663 of 1995.
2. The High Court, while dismissing the civil
revision case, solely relied on a decision of the
Division Bench of that High Court, namely, U.Sarat
Kumar vs. Authorised Officer, Land Reforms
reported in 1998 (1) A.L.T. 496. The aforesaid
1
decision of the High Court in U.Sarat Kumar’s case
has been affirmed by this Court in the case of
Makineni Venkata Sujatha vs. Land Reforms
Tribunal & Anr. reported in 2000 (8) SCC 196.
Since the question raised before the High Court as
well as before us is now covered by the aforesaid
decision of this Court reported in 2000 (8) SCC 196,
there is no question to interfere with the impugned
judgment.
3. Accordingly, the appeals are dismissed with no
order as to costs. The interim order, if any, stands
vacated. The lower court record if lying in this
Registry, the same may be sent back at an early
date.
