PRAMOD R., ADVOCATE FOR R1; NOTICE TO R2 TO R7 IS DISPENSED WITH VIDE ORDER DATED 30.10.2025) THIS RSA IS FILED UNDER SECTION 100 OF CPC, AGAINST THE JUDGMENT AND DECREE DATED 28.08.2023 PASSED IN R.A.NO.21/2020 ON THE FILE OF THE PRINCIPAL DISTRICT AND SESSIONS JUDGE, CHITRADURGA, DISMISSING THE APPEAL AND CONFIRMING THE JUDGMENT AND DECREE - 4 - HC-KAR NC: 2025:KHC:52595 RSA No. 2113 of 2023 DATED 28.11.2018 PASSED IN FDP NO.8/2012 ON THE FILE OF THE SENIOR CIVIL JUDGE AND JMFC, CHALLAKERE. THIS APPEAL COMING ON FOR ADMISSION THIS DAY, JUDGMENT WAS DELIVERED THEREIN AS UNDER: CORAM: HON'BLE MR. JUSTICE H.P.SANDESH ORAL JUDGMENT This matter is listed for admission. I have heard learned counsel for the appellants and learned counsel for respondent No.1. 2. The present second appeal is filed against the order passed in FDP No.8/2012 and also order passed in R.A.No.21/2020. 3. The main contention of learned counsel for the appellants before this Court is that both the Courts have committed an error in allowing the FDP, particularly in respect of item No.3 of the suit schedule property and further it is not the duty of the FDP Court to inform the PDO of the Panchayath to make entries in respect of item Nos.4 to 6 of the suit schedule properties and not justified in giving such a direction. - 5 - HC-KAR NC: 2025:KHC:52595 RSA No. 2113 of 2023 4. Learned counsel for respondent No.1 would submit that the Trial Court based on the judgment and decree allowed the FDP proceedings, that too, based on the Commissioner’s report dated 21.11.2013 filed by Tahsildar/ADLR, Molakalmur and also Commissioner’s report dated 08.04.2014 filed by the PDO of Nerlahalli Village Panchayath is in accordance with the judgment and decree passed in O.S.No.34/2002 dated 01.12.2006. Hence, Commissioner’s report is accepted and considering the same, intimation was given to PDO of Nerlahalli Village Panchayath, Molakalmur Taluk and therefore, the appellant cannot find fault with the order passed by the Trial Court as well as the First Appellate Court. 5. The First Appellate Court also having reassessed the material available on record in paragraph No.12 comes to the conclusion that Commissioner’s report and the report of the Tahsildar are accepted and also there is a direction to effect entries in the documents. Even there is an observation to get the execution of the property and final decree was also drawn and no error on the part of the Trial Court in passing such an order. - 6 - HC-KAR NC: 2025:KHC:52595 RSA No. 2113 of 2023 6. Having heard learned counsel for the appellant and learned counsel for respondent No.1 and also considering the material on record, FDP was drawn in terms of the order passed by the Trial Court in O.S.No.34/2002. The only contention of learned counsel for the appellant is that allotment in respect of item No.3 of the property i.e., Sy.No.78/P measuring to an extent of 8 acres 38 guntas is not correct and ought not to have granted the same, since the said property is the self-acquired property of the appellants. The said ground cannot be urged in the FDP as well as in the R.A. and if the appellants have any such grievance, ought to have challenged the preliminary decree questioning allotment of item No.3 of the property claiming that the same is the self-acquired property and the judgment of preliminary decree has already attained its finality. Hence, I do not find any ground to consider the second appeal and both the Courts have not committed any error in allotting the property and allotment is made in terms of the preliminary decree passed in O.S.No.34/2002. Therefore, no merit in the second appeal to invoke Section 100 of CPC. - 7 - HC-KAR NC: 2025:KHC:52595 RSA No. 2113 of 2023 7. In view of the discussion made above, I pass the following: ORDER The regular second appeal is dismissed. Sd/- (H.P.SANDESH) JUDGE ST List No.: 1 Sl No.: 45
