C 
The petitioner entered into an agreement on June 21, 1973 to pur-
chase certain lands from a Charity Trust. In 1975, when 'A' and others 
attempted to construct a boundary wall in the said land, the petitioner 
filed a suit and had an injunction against 'them restraining from interfer-
D 
ing with his possession and construction of the boundary wall. When the 
petitioner had attempted to repair the existing road on the land and open 
drainage, the respondent filed a suit for injunction, claiming to be in 
possession of the land admeasuring 1947 sq. mts. and that the petitioner 
claimed that they were attempting to trespass into his land. Consequently, 
the petitioner filed a suit and also sought ad interim injunction to restrain E 
the respondent from trespassing into his land. Initially, interim injunction 
was granted. On appeal a single Judge of the High Court directed the 
Commissioner to demarcate the lands in exclusive possession and enjoy-
ment of the petitioner within the compound wall. Against that order, the 
petitioner filed Letters Patent Appeal, and the Division Bench rejected the F 
same on the ground that LPA would not lie against the order of the single 
Judge. Thus these SLPs. 
It was contended for the petitioner that as per the law laid down by 
this Court in Shah Babula/ Khimji v. Jayaben, AIR (1981) SC 1787, L.P.A. G 
would lie to the Division Bench against the interlocutory order of the single 
Judge and, therefore, the view of the High Court is not correct in law. 
Dismissing the SLPs, this Court
