THIS APPEAL, COMING ON FOR PRELIMINARY HEARING, THIS DAY, JUDGMENT WAS DELIVERED THEREIN AS UNDER: CORAM: HON'BLE MR. JUSTICE D K SINGH and HON'BLE MR. JUSTICE S RACHAIAH - 5 - HC-KAR NC: 2026:KHC:7555-DB WA No. 1127 of 2024 ORAL JUDGMENT (PER: HON'BLE MR. JUSTICE D K SINGH) The present intra Court appeal has been filed impugning the judgment and order dated 27.06.2024 passed in W.P.No.55573/2016 by the learned Single Judge whereby the matter has been remanded back to the Land Tribunal to decide afresh. 2. The Land Tribunal had passed the order against the dead person inasmuch as respondent No.4-Smt. Boramma had died on 10.07.2016, whereas the Land Tribunal had passed the order on 23.09.2016. Further, all the legal heirs of late Smt. Boramma were not brought on record before the final order dated 23.09.2016 came to be passed. 2. The learned Single Judge has directed the Land Tribunal, Tumakuru to dispose of the pending petition after the legal heirs of the deceased respondent No.4 are brought on record, within an outer limit of nine months from the date of receipt of certified copy of the order. - 6 - HC-KAR NC: 2026:KHC:7555-DB WA No. 1127 of 2024 3. We do not think that the order passed by the learned Single Judge requires an interference by this Court. Therefore, we dismiss this writ appeal. However, we direct the parties to co-operate for early conclusion of the proceedings pending before the Land Tribunal, Tumakuru within a period of four months from today. 4. Let this order be communicated to the land Tribunal by the Registry and by the learned counsel representing the parties. Sd/- (D K SINGH) JUDGE Sd/- (S RACHAIAH) JUDGE RKA List No.: 1 Sl No.: 3
