Reported in: AIR1981AP87

Jayachandra Reddy, J.1. The matter arises under the Indian Divorce Act. The wife filed a petition under Section 22 of the Indian Divorce Act (hereinafter referred to as 'the Act') seeking judicial separation from her husband on the ground that her husband was living with another woman, viz., the 2nd Respondent, and that he deserted her (the petitioner) for more than five years. The learned Chief Judge, City Civil Court, Hyderabad, who heard the petition, allowed the same and granted a decree of judicial separation as prayed for.

The State of Andhra Pradesh Vs. Parasu Kuppuswamy Chetty and Sons

Court: Andhra Pradesh

Decided on: Dec-03-1980

Reported in: [1981]48STC1(AP)

ORDERObul Reddi, C.J. 1. We are of the opinion that these four tax revision cases should be referred to a Full Bench of three Judges. Mr. D. V. Sastri, the learned counsel appearing for the State of Andhra Pradesh, the petitioner in all the cases, submitted that the decision of this Court in Konathala Audinarayana and Sons v. Commercial Tax Officer, Anakapalli ([1977] 39 S.T.C. 547), cannot be applied to the facts of these four cases. According to him, that was not a case where a Deputy Commissioner, in exercise of revisional jurisdiction under section 20(2) of the A.P. General Sales Tax Act, had restored the assessment order having regard to the Validation Act. According to him, that was only a case where an assessment has been set aside and sought to be revived by a Validation Act. He distinguishes that case by stating that after section 11 of the A.P. General Sales Tax Act was struck down by this Court in K. Venkata Ramana v. State of A.P. ([1969] 24 S.T.C. 367), revisions by the De...
