O.A.2/2001 filed along with this revision that the petitioner had earlier filed an application before the Land Tribunal, Beypore as O.A.1470/1970 under Section 80B of the Land Reforms Act and that purchase was allowed as per the said application though the extent was limited to 0.95 cents. It could only be for the reason that the kudikidappu was overlapping properties belonging to two persons, which however, is not evidenced by the records produced. The petitioner however, did not prefer any appeal from the order in O.A.1470/1970 and the said order became final. It is thereafter that he filed O.A.2/2001 before the Land Tribunal, Kozhikode for purchase under Section 80B of the Kerala Land Reforms Act. The said application was being dismissed by the land tribunal holding that the claim is barred by res judicata in view of the provisions under Section 11 of the Civil Procedure Code because of the order in O.A.1470/1970 which has become final. Hence, on merits also I do not find any arguable case for the petitioner. In the circumstances there is no merit in the civil revision petition and the C.R.P is dismissed.
