: 1 : IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE AT BOMBAY CIVIL APPELLATE JURISDICTION APPEAL FROM ORDER NO.1279 OF 2008 ALONGWITH CIVIL APPLICATION NO.1571 OF 2008 IN APPEAL FROM ORDER NO.1279 OF 2008 Cecilia John Pereira .. Appellant V/s. Mathew Albert Jacinto & Ors. .. Respondents Mrs. Nutan S. Molly for the Appellant-Applicant. Mr. R.D. Sawant for Respondent Nos.1, 4 to 7, 10 and 11. Mr. Clive D’Souza for Respondent No.2. CORAM : SMT. NISHITA MHATRE, J. DATED : 24 TH NOVEMBER, 2009. P.C.: 1. The Appeal from Order has been filed against the order dated 6th December, 2008 passed by the City Civil Court, Dindoshi, Bombay, in the Notice of Motion in S.C. Suit No.2174 of 2008 refusing ad- interim relief to the appellant-applicant. By an order dated 15th December, 2008, this Court had directed the parties to maintain status-quo in respect of the suit property in all respects including in respect of the construction. : 2 : 2. In my opinion, since the Notice of Motion is pending for final disposal, it would be appropriate to direct the trial Court to decide the Notice of Motion within a stipulated period and to continue the order of status-quo which has been running for almost one year. 3. The learned Advocates appearing for the parties had no objection to this course being followed. 4. Accordingly, the Appeal from Order is disposed of by directing the trial Court to dispose of the Notice of Motion pending in the S.C. Suit No.2174 of 2008 within a period of three months from today. 5. The order of status-quo granted by this Court on 15th December, 2008 shall continue to operate during the pendency of the hearing of the Notice of Motion. 6. In view of the above, Civil Application No.1571 of 2008 pending in the Appeal from Order does not survive and the same is dismissed. .......
