Court: Andhra Pradesh

Decided on: Dec-28-1990

Reported in: 1991(1)ALT345; (1995)IIILLJ68AP

ORDERBhaskar Rao, J. 1. The question that arises in this batch of Criminal Petitions is, whether the doctrine of promissory estoppel could be invoked against the State for actions resultant of legislative obligations so as to get over the prosecutions in a proceeding under Section 482, Cr. P.C. during the course of administration of Criminal Justice.2. The facts that gave rise to this question are : In 1984 when the petitioner started the school, by name H. Rosetle English Medium School, Section 16 of the Employees' Provident Funds and Miscellaneous Provision Act, 1952 (hereinafter referred to as 'the Act') exempted application of its provision to establishments employing 20 to 50 persons until expiry of five years from the date of setting up of the establishment.

Reported in: 1991(1)ALT366

ORDERJagannadha Rao, J.1. The petitioners are the plaintiffs in O.S.No. 623/90. The suit was one for grant of permanent injunction in respect of certain agricultural lands and for restraining the defendants from interfering with the plaintiffs' possession. Pending suit the petitioners filed IA. No. 849/90 for grant of temporary injunction. The defendants-respondents filed a counter stating that the plaintiffs are not in possession and that they (defendants) are in possession. After mentioning the facts of the case and the previous litigation between the parties, the learned District Munsif stated that it may not be good for the court to give a finding as to whether the plaintiffs or defendants are in possession and that therefore it would be better to direct maintenance of the 'status quo'. That order was passed on 16-10-1990. Thereafter, the plaintiffs filed I.A. No. 1077/90 for grant of police aid and directions to the Station House Officer, Chebrole to see that the orders in IA.

Polineni Raghavarao Vs. the Joint Collector, Prakasham Dist., Ongole a ...

Court: Andhra Pradesh

Decided on: Dec-27-1990

Reported in: AIR1991AP227

ORDER1. The petitioner has an alternative remedy by way of revision against the impugned order before the District Collector. The petitioner was selected as a fair price shop dealer by the Revenue Divisional Officer. Against the order, the fourth respondent preferred an appeal before the Joint Collector. The Joint Collector allowed the appeal. The petitioner questions the jurisdiction of the Joint Collector to pass the order allowing the appeal filed by the fourth respondent.2. The contention of the petitioner with regard to jurisdiction to pass the impugned order cannot be accepted. The Joint collector has certainly got jurisdiction to sit in appeal against the orders made by the Revenue Divisional Officer. In the case of fair price shops, when interviews are held, one person has to be selected, The other person who is not selected is the aggrieved person. He has got a right of appeal against the order of selection. In this case, the petitioner, being the aggrieved person is entitled ...

Court: Andhra Pradesh

Decided on: Dec-27-1990

Reported in: 1991(1)ALT368

ORDERBhaskar Rao, J.1. The question of law that arises for consideration in this revision is, whether filing of a charge-sheet by the police is a bar for the court to take cognizance of the offence on a private complaint filed.2. The petitioner herein filed a complaint against the respondents alleging certain offences under Sections 416, 418, 419, 465, 466, 468, 406 and 420 r/w 109 I.P.C. The lower court after recording the sworn statement of the petitioner dismissed the complaint on the ground that at the instance of some person the case was registered by the police, investigation was made and a charge-sheet was also filed and therefore it is not desirable to take the complaint on file and issue process. It is this order that is subject matter of challenge in this revision.3. As submitted by Mr. Padmanabha Reddy, the court on receipt of a complaint filed shall examine on oath the complainant and the witnesses, if any, present under Section 200 Cr.

Nakka Hanumanthu and anr. Vs. Karnati Shankariah and ors.

Court: Andhra Pradesh

Decided on: Dec-26-1990

Reported in: 1991(1)ALT540

ORDERParvatha Rao, J.1 In this Civil Revision Petition, the decision of the trial court regarding the marking of a document put to the witness is questioned. P.W. 1, the plaintiff, was sought to be confronted with the said document, an agreement of sale allegedly executed by P.W. 1 in favour of a defendant, while being cross-examined on behalf of that defendant. The trial court held that the said document should be marked through that defendant or witness on his behalf and not through a witness on the plaintiff's side while he was being cross-examined, when he denied knowledge of it. This is not a case where only the signature portion of a document was put to the witness for eliciting his answer as to whether the signature was his or not.2. I am of the view that the Civil Revision Petition is without any merit because there is no case decided.3. The Supreme Court held in Baldevdas v. Filmistan Distributors, : [1970]1SCR435 referring to its decision in Major S.S. Khanna v. Brig. F.J. Dh...
