2017- A.P. DIGEST - JUNE 4



five accused were acquitted of the
charge under Section 302 read with 34 IPC. -
Moreover the viscera contain mercury metallic
poison along with Ethyl alcohol.  According to
P.W.10, mercury is a corrosive substance and it
caused damage to the lips, mouth, throat and
oesonghages.  But, there is no corrosive
appearance on the lips, mouth and throat of the
deceased to fix up the liability against the
accused that they poured manocrotopas mercury  
metallic poison in the mouth of deceased and
killed her.
On a careful appreciation of the entire oral and
documentary evidence on record and the reasons assigned by  
the trial Court, we are of the opinion that the prosecution has
miserably failed to prove the guilt of the accused beyond all
reasonable doubt and that the trial Court has rightly
acquitted all the accused of the charge framed against them.

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
