Court: Andhra Pradesh

Decided on: Feb-08-2002

Reported in: 2002(2)ALD477; 2002(3)ALT10

ORDERAr. Lakshmanan, C.J. 1. As the issues involved in both these writ petitions are similar, they can be disposed of by this common order. For the purpose of disposal of these writ petitions, facts are taken from writ petition No. 2250 of 1991.2. The petitioner is a hereditary trustee of Sri Rameswaraswamy temple and Sri Venugopala Swamy temple, Nagula Uppalapalem village. The writ petition was filed to quash the office reference No. G2/15093/90, dated 18-6-1990 and the consequential proceedings in Rc.

The petitioner being the hereditary trustee is in the management of the two temples and therefore the 1st respondent cannot disturb the management of the petitioner by ap...

Ar. Lakshmanan, C.J. 1. We have heard the learned Counsel for the review petitioners and perused the grounds of review. The grounds which have now been raised in this review have already been raised before the authorities and also in the writ petition. All the authorities have rejected the case of the review petitioners which was also affirmed by the learned single Judge by a well reasoned order. The learned Judges of the Division Bench have also affirmed the order of the learned single Judge and thereby confirmed the orders passed by the authorities below. There is no error apparent on the face of the record. Under the guise of filing the review petition, the learned Counsel for the review petitioners is trying to re-open, the whole issue and trying to reagitate the issues which have already been finally decided by the authorities and also by the learned single Judge.
