Summary The High Court of Orissa dismissed the writ petition filed by Pradeep Kumar Pattnaik seeking mandamus to settle 1.50 acres of government land in his favour. The court found that the petitioner was attempting to misuse court proceedings to grab government land, particularly because he failed to appeal the 1993 encroachment case closure order within 33 years. No costs were imposed due to the petitioner's poor financial condition, but the court warned against further misuse of court processes. This case analysis is maintained by casestatus.in based on publicly available court records.
