It is contended by the petitioner that he has purchased the subject property for valid sale consideration from his vendor. However the respondent after completion of all formalities has refused to register the document. The reasons assigned by him are that the erstwhile composite High Court of Andhra Pradesh vide order in CRP.No.1147 of 2012 granted injunction and since the property is covered under the said injunction orders the registration of the document was refused. 4. The learned counsel for the petitioner, Smt. Nimmagadda Revathi contends that neither her vendor nor she were parties to the said CRP No.1147 of 2012 at any point of time. Thus any interim order passed in the said case would not be applicable to the petitioner. The learned counsel for the petitioner placing reliance on the Judgment of this Court in W.P.No.9139 of 2012, dated 02.04.2012, W.P.No.16921 of 2014 etc., prays for a direction to the authorities to verify if the petitioner was party to the said CRP and process the document and register the same in accordance with law. 5. Perused the record and the orders passed by the Coordinate Benches of the erstwhile composite High Court and the order passed by Coordinate Bench of this Court in W.P.No.8708 of 2025. The orders passed in CRP No.1147 of 2012 came up for consideration in similar set of 4 circumstances before this Court. This Court directed the registering authorities to verify if the petitioners therein were parties to the CRP and if they are not parties to the CRP directed the respondents therein to process the document in accordance with law and release the same in favour of the writ petitioners therein. In the present case also the order passed in the said CRP is the subject matter of issue. Therefore placing reliance on the said orders, this Court deems it appropriate to dispose of the writ petition as the issue involved in the present case is covered by the above referred Judgments. 6. Accordingly, the Writ Petition is disposed of, in terms of the orders passed in Writ Petition Nos.9139 of 2012 and 16921 of 2014, directing the Registering authorities to verify if either the petitioners, or his vendor were parties to the CRP No.1147 of 2012 and if it is found that they are not parties to the CRP, the Registering authority shall process the document P.No.50/2021 and register the same in accordance with law and release the same to the petitioner, within a period of four (04) weeks from the date of receipt of copy of this order.
