This Petition has been placed for directions since it was found by the Registry on a scrutiny of the record that the Petition which is of the year 1980 had not been disposed of. The circumstance leading to the filing of the present petition was a stay was sought of an order passed by the District Deputy Registrar under Section 78 of the Maharashtra Co-operative Societies Act, 1960 superseding the Managing Committee of the Society, pending the disposal of an appeal by the second Respondent. None appears on behalf of the Petitioners. In all probability the petition has been rendered infructuous since the appeal against the order of supersession would have been disposed of by now. 2. The Petition is accordingly disposed of. Liberty to the parties to apply in the event that they seek any modification of the directions.
