Learned counsel for the petitioner submits that this Court passed orders dated 02.07.2025 in W.P.No.15780 of 2025 directing the respondents to consider and dispose of the application filed by the petitioner. But the respondents did not comply with the orders of this Court. 4. For more understanding, the orders dated 02.07.2025 in W.P.No.15780 of 2025 is extracted hereunder: “In the result, the writ petition is disposed of, directing the respondents to consider and dispose of the application filed by the petitioners seeking for mutation and for issuance of pattadar pass books with reference to the proceedings dated 17.05.2025 issued by the 3rd respondent and in accordance with the provisions of the Andhra Pradesh Rights in Land and Pattadar Pass Books Act, 1971, after providing opportunity of hearing to the parties concerned, within a period of three (03) months from the date of receipt of a copy of this order.” 6 5. Learned counsel for the respondents submits that in compliance of the orders of this Court, the respondents passed a detailed order dated 10.01.2026 as per the entitlement of the petitioners. He further submits that once the respondents considered the claim of the petitioners and passed orders in detail as per their entitlement, itself amounts to compliance of the orders of this Court. Therefore, no cause survives and contempt case cannot be enforced under Sections 10 and 12 of Contempt of Courts Act, 1971. 6. Heard both the learned counsel and on perusal of the material placed on record, more particularly, the written instructions dated 10.01.2026 furnished by the learned counsel for the respondents, it is observed that the orders dated 02.07.2025 passed by this Court in W.P.No.15780 of 2025 are complied with. It is made clear that any grievance out of the proceedings dated 10.01.2026 issued by the respondents, after having considered the claim of the petitioners, if the petitioners still aggrieved pursuant to the proceedings dated 10.01.2026, the petitioners herein are at liberty to proceed further. But as far as the contempt case is concerned, the respondents complied with the orders of this Court as directed and issued proceedings dated 10.01.2026 to that effect. Therefore, contempt case cannot be enforced and the same is liable to be closed. 7. In view of the above, the present contempt case is closed. However, the petitioners, who are aggrieved by the proceedings dated 10.01.2026 are at liberty to initiate appropriate proceedings for appropriate relief. There shall be no order as to costs. 7 Consequently, Miscellaneous Petitions, if any, pending in the contempt case shall stand closed. ________________________________ VENKATESWARLU NIMMAGADDA, J 21.01.2026 BSP 8 38 HON’BLE SRI JUSTICE VENKATESWARLU NIMMAGADDA (closed) Contempt Case No.3320 of 2025 21.01.2026 BSP
