Gurusiddamma Vs. Hanumanthappa and ors.

Court: Karnataka

Decided on: Sep-11-2001

Reported in: ILR2002KAR612; 2002(1)KarLJ478

M.F. Saldanha, J.1. We have heard the learned Advocates for both the contesting parties as also the learned Government Advocate on merits.2. The short point involved in this appeal and one which is of some consequence particularly in the litigation relating to the land reforms, where the cases have been shuttling between the Tribunal and the High Court with continuous regularity without being disposed off at either of the two ends, is whether the grounds on which the remands are ordered would require some level of scrutiny. The present case is a classic instance where on the previous occasion the High Court granted a remand on the application of the claimant who had contended that he desires to lead additional evidence. Without going into the question as to why the evidence was not lead earlier and what was the nature of the evidence, the High Court accepted the submission of the learned Counsel and remanded the case. It is quite significant for us to note that despite this solitary gr...

Court: Karnataka

Decided on: Sep-10-2001

Reported in: 2001CriLJ4438; ILR2002KAR2429; 2001(6)KarLJ63

ORDERThe Court 1. Petitioner is the accused in these cases facing prosecution for the offence punishable under Section 138 of the Negotiable Instruments Act, 1881. The grievance of the petitioner is that there is no application of mind on the part of the learned Magistrate in taking cognizance because the order relating to taking cognizance is commonly typed in all the cases and sworn statement is recorded in readily typed formats withblanks filled up. However, undesirable the practice of filling up of blanks in respect of sworn statement may be, I am of the opinion that taking all the circumstances together, in these cases, there is definitely application of mind. Learned Magistrate has got the relevant order portion relating to taking up of cognizance typed, and, therefrom it is absolutely clear that he has noted about the complainant being present, about the cognizance being taken, about recording sworn statement, and then posting it for further orders. It is on the next date that h...

Reported in: AIR2002Kant116; ILR2001KAR4630; 2001(6)KarLJ1

1. One V.R. Narasimha Murthy-appellant has filed this writ appeal against the order of the learned Single Judge in W.P. No. 16340 of 1999, dated 15-12-2000. The learned Counsel for the appellant submits the discretion was exercised in favour of respondent 1 considering to be a mandate of this Court and the time was extended and delay was condoned without applying mind. The same is liable to be set aside as the discretion so exercised is not judicious one and the order of the Division Bench dated 28-6-2001 directing the Corporation to reconsider and decide the issue afresh after giving opportunity to the appellant, needs no interference.2. The learned Counsel for the first respondent-petitioner, Harish Kumar, submits that the appellant had also participated in the auction of LPG distributorship in pursuance of the notification dated 20-2-1999 and was unsuccessful bidder. The first respondent who was the highest bidder had to deposit the remaining amount on or before 30-3-1999. On accoun...

The validity and correctness of the order passed by the learned Single Judge, dismissing the writ petition, is sought to be challenged in this appeal preferred by the appellant-Temple.2. Every year during Mahashivarathri Festival, the Temple conducts a jatra which is attended by a large number of persons. During the year 1988 the jatra was scheduled to take place from 11-2-1988 to 19-2-1988. As the gathering in the jatra used to be very large, it necessitated on the part of respondent 3, Mandal Panchayat, to make special arrangements for public health, safety or convenience. The third respondent having tentatively fixed a certain sum held a meeting with the Managing Trustee of the Temple and in the said meeting the probable expenditure likely to be incurred for making arrangements during the jatra was determined as Rs. 37,700/-.
