https://www.taxtmi.com/caselaws?id=285502 Section 56 of the Andhra Pradesh (Andhra Area) Estates (Abolition and Conversion into Ryotwari) Act, 1948 was held not to operate retrospectively so as to divest a civil court of jurisdiction over a suit already pending before notification, because jurisdiction once vested is not taken away without clear statutory language. The court also held that vesting of the estate in the Government did not extinguish an existing right to possession or prevent a suit against a trespasser or a person claiming under a tenant, since the statutory scheme preserved possessory rights and did not authorise private interference. The decree for possession was therefore sustained. en-us Tue, 08 Oct 1968 00:00:00 +0530 Thu, 16 Jan 2020 10:19:00 +0530 TaxTMI RSS Generator https://www.taxtmi.com/caselaws?id=285502 Section 56 of the Andhra Pradesh (Andhra Area) Estates (Abolition and Conversion into Ryotwari) Act, 1948 was held not to operate retrospectively so as to divest a civil court of jurisdiction over a suit already pending before notification, because jurisdiction once vested is not taken away without clear statutory language.
