cases filed by them. Both sides submit that the copy of the memorandum of settlement is produced as Anx.A-1 along with the affidavit dated 19.10.2015 sworn to by the appellants in this case. Both sides also submit that the Second Appeal may be disposed in the light of Anx.A-1 settlement and that terms and conditions of Anx.A-1 settlement may be recorded by this Court so as to form part of the decree.

¶30

In the light of the submissions made by both sides, it is ordered that this Regular Second Appeal will stand finally disposed of in terms of Anx.A-1 settlement produced along with the affidavit dated 19.10.2015 filed by the appellants in I.A.No.2745/2015 in this R.S.A. and that the said settlement will form part of the decree.
