Arepu Anantha Lakshmi S. (D) by Lrs vs Shah Boomaji Lalchand

Bench: 2 — Kurian

In Brief

In this civil appeal concerning the possession of premises, the appellants sought permission to withdraw their appeal after the disputed property had already been handed over to them in 2014. The Supreme Court granted the withdrawal application and dismissed the appeal as withdrawn, finding the appeal moot given that the underlying subject matter had been resolved through actual transfer of possession to the appellants. No costs were awarded.
