1. These are four applications for leave to appeal to the Supreme Court. They arise out of the decisions of this Court in certain Letters Patent Appeals, namely, 45, 46, 47 and 48 of 1949. These Letters Patent Appeals arose out of the orders made in two Darkhasts Nos. 6 and 9 of 1947 in the Court of the Civil Judge (S. D.) Dharwar. Prom Darkhast No. 6 of 1947 the two First Appeals were F. A. Nos. 131 of 1948 and 505 of 1948 and from Darkhast No. 9 of 1947 the First Appeals were F. A. Nos. 130 of 1S48 and 507 of 1948.

All these four appeals were disposed of by Mr. Justce Gajendragadkar and Letters Patent Appeals from the judgment of the learned Judge were disposed of by Mr. Justice Dixit and myself on 7-3-1951, by one common judgment. Letters Patent Appeals Nos. 48 and 46 of 1949 were from Darkhast No. 6 of 1947 and Letters Patent Appeals Nos. 45 and 47 of 1949 were in respect of Darkhast No. 9 of 1947. After these appeals were disposed of on 7-3-1951, the present applications for leave to appeal to the Supreme Court were filed on 1-8-1951. Rule was issued in all those four applications and the applications have now come up before us for final hearing.
