CRP 296/2010 BEFORE HON’BLE THE CHIEF JUSTICE MR. MADAN B. LOKUR The petitioner is aggrieved by the order dated 2/7/2010 passed by the Ci vil Judge, Bongaigaon in Title Suit No.61/1999 (Sanghi Textiles Limited vs Ashok Paper Mill Ltd). The grievance of the petitioner is that the suit is for the recovery of large amount of Rs. 67.61 crore and the matter has remained pending for almost a bout 10 to 11 years. Without going into the number of cases pending before the learned Judge, it appears that efforts need to be made to expedite the disposal of the Suit pa rticularly since PW 2 is still being cross examined and PW 3 has already died ev en before his cross-examination could be completed. It is true that there are a large numbers of exhibited documents. It appears tha t more than 200 documents have already been exhibited but given the amount invol ved in the suit, it should be given some priority. It is therefore directed that the learned Trial Judge should make an eff ort to dispose of the matter expeditiously. It is directed that any adjournment sought for by any party will be allowed only on costs of Rs. 1000/- per adjournm ent. Under these circumstances, it is expected that the learned Trial Judge will make an effort to devote sufficient time for disposal of the suit. This petition is disposed of on the above directions.
