NON EXECUTING THE ADVOCATE COMMISSIONER WARRANT FOR EXAMINATION OF EXPERT DUE TO SMAKHYA ANDHRA STRIKE - NOT SUFFICIENT REASON the Supreme Court held: "....When the advocate who was engaged by a party was on strike there is no obligation on the part of the court either to wait or to adjourn the case on that count...." In view of the above noted authoritative pronouncements, irrespective of the cause, the lawyers cannot go on strike. Therefore, the plea that because of the lawyers' strike, the Advocate-Commissioner could not execute warrant cannot be countenanced in law. By staying away from the work, the Court was left with no option other than directing return of the warrant by the Advocate- Commissioner. Therefore, I do not find anything wrong in the approach of the lower Court or any error in the orders passed by it, which are the subject matter of this Civil Revision Petition. If the petitioner has suffered any damage on account of the return of the warrant by the Advocate-Commissioner, he shall be free to claim such damages from his Advocate as well as the Advocate- Commissioner by initiating appropriate proceedings. Subject to the liberty given to the petitioner as above, the Civil Revision Petition is disposed of.-2015 A.P.(2014) MSK LAW REPORTS

NON EXECUTING THE ADVOCATE COMMISSIONER WARRANT FOR EXAMINATION OF EXPERT DUE TO SMAKHYA ANDHRA STRIKE - NOT SUFFICIENT REASON 

 the Supreme  
Court held:
"....When the advocate who was engaged by a party was on strike there is no
obligation on the part of the court either to wait or to adjourn the case on
that count...."

         In view of the above noted authoritative pronouncements, irrespective of
the cause, the lawyers cannot go on strike.  Therefore, the plea that because of
the lawyers' strike, the Advocate-Commissioner could not execute warrant cannot
be countenanced in law.  By staying away from the work, the Court was left with
no option other than directing return of the warrant by the Advocate-
Commissioner.  Therefore, I do not find anything wrong in the approach of the
lower Court or any error in the orders passed by it, which are the subject
matter of this Civil Revision Petition.  If the petitioner has suffered any
damage on account of the return of the warrant by the Advocate-Commissioner, he
shall be free to claim such damages from his Advocate as well as the Advocate-
Commissioner by initiating appropriate proceedings.

Court fee - Sec.34 of A.P.C.F & S.V.Act - partition of Plaints-A and B-Schedule properties, in the manner pleaded by her, and for grant of future profits. Plaint-A Schedule comprised of, four items of immovable properties, and Plaint-B Schedule comprised of, nine items of jewellery. Pleading that the parties are in joint possession of the said properties, the petitioner paid Court-fee of Rs. 200/- under Sub-section (2) of Section 34 of the A.P. Court Fees and Suits Valuation Act, 1956 (for short 'the Act'). The trial Court returned the plaint, through its order dated 23-6-2006, directing the petitioner herein, to pay Court fee on movable properties, on her shares, as per the Act, within the time stipulated by it.= In the instant case, the petitioner asserted that, herself and the respondents are in joint possession of the Plaints-A and B-Schedule properties. In a way, the trial Court was satisfied, that the immovable properties mentioned in Plaint-A schedule are in joint possession, and in that view of the matter, it did not insist on payment of ad-valorem Court-fee, on such items. It, however, took a different view, as regards the movable properties. Neither from the plaint, nor from the endorsement made by the trial Court, it is found that there is any distinction, as to the nature of rights claimed, in respect of Plaint-A Schedule properties, on the one hand, and Plaint-B schedule properties, on the other hand. In fact, the nature and incidence of possession, of an immovable property, gives rise to, relatively greater consequences of law, than the possession of an item of movable property. The possession of an item of immovable property can be said to be more assertive, firm and lasting, than the one, of movable property. The endorsement made by the trial Court cannot be sustained, either on law, or on facts. 2015 A.P.(2006)MSKLAWREPORTS
