of <h1>Court denies transfer of civil suit from Agent to Government under A.P. Scheduled Areas Land Transfer Regulation.</h1> <h3>AP State Financial Corpn. Versus Paida Jogaiah</h3> AP State Financial Corpn. Versus Paida Jogaiah - [2004] 55 SCL 697 (AP) Issues:Transfer of a civil suit involving a financial corporation and a borrower to a different court.Analysis:The petitioner, a financial corporation, sought the transfer of a civil suit from the Agent to the Government and District Collector to the Court of District Judge. The suit was filed by the borrower against the financial corporation, claiming relief related to the establishment of a rice mill and alleging highhanded actions by the petitioner. The petitioner argued that the suit involved complex legal questions beyond the capacity of the current court and raised concerns about bias and lack of cooperation. On the other hand, the borrower contended that the suit was rightfully filed before the current court based on specific regulations governing agency areas. The borrower, a tribal individual, highlighted the special provisions protecting tribal members in agency tracts and the exclusive jurisdiction of certain courts over such matters.The court examined the legal framework, including the State Financial Corporations Act and the A.P. Scheduled Areas Land Transfer Regulation. It noted that suits against tribal members must be instituted in courts with jurisdiction over agency tracts, as per the Regulation, which overrides other laws. The court emphasized the need for specialized adjudication in agency tracts due to unique conditions and the protection of tribal rights. The financial corporation's exercise of powers under the Act was acknowledged, but it was questioned why the corporation doubted the current court's adjudicatory capacity when it had similar powers. The court rejected the petitioner's arguments of bias and lack of cooperation, pointing out exemptions from court fees in agency tracts and questioning the corporation's interference in the borrower's business affairs.In conclusion, the court dismissed the transfer application, stating that no sufficient grounds were presented for moving the suit to a different court. The court highlighted the importance of respecting the jurisdictional provisions for agency tracts and upheld the current court's authority to adjudicate the matter. The dismissal was made without imposing any costs on either party.
