IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE AT BOMBAY O. O. C. J. NOTICE OF MOTION NO.254 OF 2008 IN SUIT NO.669 OF 2007 Dr. Ramakant Pande ..Plaintiff. Vs. Meeta Sumer Singh and others ..Defendants. ..... Ms. J.M. Sidhwa i/b S.R. Pandey for the Plaintiff. None for the Defendants. ..... CORAM: DR. D.Y. CHANDRACHUD, J. 30th January, 2008. P.C. : In a suit for defamation instituted by an advocate practicing before the Court an ad interim order was passed by a Learned Single Judge of this Court on 20th December, 2006. On 12th June, 2007 the Motion was listed at Sr. No.19 before the Learned Single Judge. A common order was passed in respect of a group of matters. Insofar as the present suit is concerned, the Learned Single Judge called upon the Plaintiff to remove the office objections and/or file an affidavit of service within two weeks failing which it was directed that the Motion shall stand dismissed for want of prosecution. In paragraph 10 of the affidavit in support, it has been stated that the matter was missed on the Board due to the absence of the advocate's clerk. An affidavit of the clerk has also been filed in support. The present Motion has been served and an affidavit of service has been filed. In my view, sufficient cause has been made out for recalling the order dated 12th June, 2007 and for restoring the Motion to file. The Motion is made absolute in terms of prayer clause (a). Since the restoration of the Motion will result in the revival of the ad interim order dated 20th December, 2006 no further directions in that regard are necessary. However, the Plaintiff shall now complete all the necessary formalities for the service of Notice of Motion 1105 of 2007 upon the Defendants within a period of four weeks from today, and an affidavit of service shall be filed, failing which the Motion shall be dismissed for want of prosecution.
