IN THE HIGH COURT OF UTTARAKHAND AT NAINITAL Civil Misc. Writ Petition No. 1892 of 2008 Bir Singh …Petitioner Versus Prem Singh Chauhan (deceased) & others …Respondents Sri Rajendra Dobhal, Advocate for petitioner Dated: October 21, 2008 Hon’ble B.C. Kandpal, J. By way of this writ petition the petitioner, who is plaintiff in O.S. No. 354 of 1999, Bir Singh versus Prem Singh Chauhan & others, pending in the court of Civil Judge (Junior Division), Haridwar, has prayed for issuing a writ of mandamus directing the trial Judge to decide the suit expeditiously. Heard Sri Rajendra Dobhal, learned counsel for the petitioner and perused the record. It appears from perusal of material available on record that petitioner-plaintiff is a senior citizen aged about 78 years. The wish of the petitioner- plaintiff for expeditious disposal of the case appears to be quite genuine. The case was instituted in the year 1999 and since then the matter has not been finally adjudicated between the parties as yet. The prayer made by the petitioner in the writ petition appears to be innocuous. 2 The trial Judge is accordingly directed to decide O.S. No. 354 of 1999, Bir Singh versus Prem Singh Chauhan & others, expeditiously without causing any unreasonable delay. The trial Judge is further directed not to grant any adjournment to either party on any unreasonable ground. With the aforesaid observations, the petition is finally disposed of. (B.C. Kandpal, J.)
