MAMMU vs HARI MOHAN — C.A. No. 2560/1997

Case Summary: Mammu v. Hari Mohan (C.A. 2560/1997) The Supreme Court dismissed the appeal but clarified important procedural law. On the substantive issue, the Court upheld the High Court's finding that the appellant (Mammu) was not entitled to "kudikidappu" (tenant-purchase) rights over a structure claimed to be part of rented premises, as the structure was merely an adjunct to the shop room rather than independent property. On the procedural issue, while the Court reversed the Kerala High Court's interpretation that remand orders are non-reviewable, it held that remand orders *are* final orders appealable under Section 103 of the Kerala Land Reforms Act 1963, distinguishing them from interlocutory orders—though this reversal applied only prospectively.
