Justice A.V. Seshasai disposed of a writ petition without examining land ownership. The court relied on the operative portion of a previous order (W.P. No. 19967 of 2014) which directed respondents not to forcibly evict petitioners without notice and hearing. Costs were not awarded.

THE HON’BLE SRI JUSTICE A.V.SESHA SAI
WRIT PETITION No.31522 of 2017
ORDER:
When the matter is taken up, it is submitted by the learned counsel for the petitioners that the issue in the present writ petition is squarely covered by the order of this Court in W.P.No.19967 of 2014, dated 22.07.2014, and a copy of the said order is filed along with the writ petition as material paper. The operative portion of the said order reads as under;
“It is unnecessary for this Court, at this stage, to examine whether the petitioners are the owners of the land or the subject land belongs to the Government. Ends of justice would be met if the respondents are directed not to forcibly evict the petitioners from the subject land, or to demolish the structures raised thereupon, except after putting them on notice and giving them an opportunity of being heard. The writ petition stands disposed of accordingly. There shall be no order as to costs. Miscellaneous petitioner, if any, pending shall stand dismissed.’
Following the above said order and for the reasons
recorded therein, this writ petition is also disposed of in terms
thereof. No order as to costs.
Miscellaneous petitions, if any, shall also stand
disposed of.
