ORDEREswara Prasad, J.1. This Writ Petition is filed by 14 students of Sree Basaveshwara Pre-University College, Tiptur, Tumkur District and the Administrative Officer of the said Institution, questioning the authority of the first respondent in issuing Annexure-C. They pray for a Writ of Mandamus, restraining the respondents from proceeding with the construction of the building or altering the nature of the vacant space situated in front of and in between the Institution.2. Notice before admission was ordered and Sri Somayaji appeared for the respondents and objections were filed. Both the learned Counsel are heard and the Writ Petition is finally disposed of.3.

Their further contention is that the land is within the municipal limits and therefore the first respondent h...

Decided on: Mar-30-1995

Reported in: ILR1995KAR1818; 1995(5)KarLJ130

ORDERVishwanath, J.1. Heard both the Counsel. The Revision Petition involves a matter of Judicial propriety. The Revision Petition is admitted. The Revision petitioner is the plaintiff in O.S. No. 3656/92 and he has challenged the order passed by the learned Principal City Civil and Sessions Judge, Bangalore on 7.3.1995 in Misc. 898 and 899/94 rejecting the prayer of the petitioner to transfer the two suits in O.S.No. 3656/92 and O.S.No. 4028/92 from the file of the XX Additional City Civil Judge (CCH-4) to some other Court for disposal according to law.2. The admitted facts are that in respect of the property involved in the above said two suits, there were proceedings under Section 145 Cr.P.C. and in those proceedings the learned Presiding Officer presiding over C.C.H.4 has admittedly given a finding that the Revision petitioner-plaintiff was not in possession.3.

Management of Samyuktha Karnataka (Loka Shikshana Trust) Vs. T.S. Rang ...

Court: Karnataka

Decided on: Mar-28-1995

Reported in: ILR1995KAR1663; 1995(3)KarLJ258

1. An issue of far reaching consequence has arisen for determination in this set of writ petitions. It basically, centres around the simple question as to whether service benefits accruable to an employee can be nullified by following an age old business gimmick defined under the omnibus umbrella of 'change of management'. In other words, whether such changes whereunder it is contended that the previous concern has become extinct and that the new one has commenced and virtually started with a clean slate, will obliterate the accrued benefits of the employees. Service law prescribes that quite apart from the salary, D.A. etc, that are payable from month to month or annually, that certain other monetary benefits accrue to an employee who has completed the prescribed period of time in an organisation and it is at the stage when the employment comes to an end that these amounts are disbursable. Until that period of time, they are virtually paper entries or a build up of credit. If over a p...

Choodanatha Setty Vs. Gopalachetty

Court: Karnataka

Decided on: Mar-28-1995

Reported in: ILR1995KAR1815

ORDERVishwanath, J.1. Heard the learned Counsel for the Revision petitioners. The Revision petitioners are applicants who filed application under Order 1 Rule 10 C.P.C. Their application was rejected by the trial Court by its order dated 20.2.1995.2. In O.S.No. 1881/80 a preliminary decree was passed and final decree proceedings were pending. It was at that stage the applicant filed the application under Order 1 Rule 10 C.P.C. to get themselves impleaded as J.Drs. in the Execution Petition.3. It should be clearly borne in mind that the two Revision petitioners were not parties to the suit.4. At the outset it should be mentioned that Order 1 Rule 10 C.P.C. does not apply to Execution Proceedings. If the Revision petitioners-applicants have purchased the property involved in the sale proceedings, other remedies are open to them. But they cannot come on record as J.Drs. when they are not parties to the original suit. Hence the Revision Petition is rejected....

Triyambak Venkatesh Hebsur Vs. Dharmaraddi Fakiraddi Khyadad

Court: Karnataka

Decided on: Mar-27-1995

Reported in: AIR1996Kant92; ILR1995KAR1816; 1995(5)KarLJ132

ORDER1. In this revision petition, the J.Dr. has challenged the order passed by the learned Munsiff, Navalgund on 12-8-1992 in Execution Case No. 26/79. What the learned Munsiff has done in this order is he has ordered issue of attachment warrant to the extent of 10 acres of land in R.S. 33/2 of Gudisagar Village to realise the decree amount.2. The learned counsel for the revision petitioner produced today with memo a copy of the decree passed in O.S. No. 72/70, out of which Execution Case No. 26/79 arose. The decree mentions that the plaintiff is entitled to recover Rs. 8,000/- with costs and interest. Nowhere in the decree has it been stated what is the interest. But the execution has been levied for recovery of the amount with interest at 12%. Since the decree does not mention what is the rate of interest allowed (decree was a consent decree), I reduce the interestallowable to the decree-holder from 12% to6% per annum. 3. The next important point for consideration in this revision i...

He appears to have been advised to disclose the same which he did in a disclosure statement filed on Oct...
