CORAM : D.B.BHOSALE,J. CORAM : D.B.BHOSALE,J. DATE : 06.10.2006 DATE : 06.10.2006 DATE : 06.10.2006 PC: PC: PC: 1. None appears for the parties. 2. This writ petition is directed against the orders dated 24.6.1993 and 13.2.1997 passed by the Courts below. By order dated 24.6.1993, injunction notice no.398 of 1988 taken out by the respondent-plaintiff for temporary injunction was made absolute, restraining the petitioners-defendants from parting with possession of the suit premises or creating third party rights in respect thereof. The appeal filed by the petitioners-defendants challenging the said order was confirmed by the Division Bench of the Small Causes Court vide judgment and order dated 13.2.1997. This Court, while issuing rule on 25.9.1997, following interim order was passed. "Rule. Interim order in terms of prayer (b). However, R.A.E.Suit No.177/88 to proceed." It is not clear whether the suit has been disposed of or not. Keeping that in view and -2- considering that the interim order in terms of prayer clause (b) is in force since 25.9.1997, I find no reason to keep this petition pending any more and I am satisfied that the following order shall meet the ends of justice. (a) The trial Court shall dispose of RAE Suit No.177/1988, if not disposed of already, as expeditiously as possible and preferably within a period of eight months from the date of receipt of this order on merits in accordance with law and without being influenced by the observations made in the impugned order. The interim order passed by this Court on 25.9.1997, shall remain operative till disposal of the suit. (b) With these observations, the writ petition is disposed of. The rule discharged.
