Land Revision No

The applicant's complaints regarding demolition and the creation of an alternative road have already been determined and dismissed in previous appeals. The supplementary order did not alter the original decree but clarified execution in light of obstacles. The court is functus officio and cannot revisit the same issues. The supplementary order is proper and justified.
