1 IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE AT BOMBAY NAGPUR BENCH, NAGPUR. Writ Petition No.2610/2006 Shri Kishor K. Gulani ..vs.. MSEDCL. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Office notes, Office Memoranda of Coram, appearances, Court's orders or directions and Registrar's orders. Court's or Judge's Orders. Shri Rohit Joshi, Advocate for petitioner. Shri R. K. Deshpande, Advocate for sole respondent. CORAM : B. P. DHARMADHIKARI, J. Dated : 10th December, 2008. The matter is today before the Court for confirmation of interim order. Advocate Joshi points out that the interim order is in operation since long back. This Court has made it clear that proceeding in Civil Suit can be taken up further. Advocate Deshpande states that the total claim in the suit was Rs.39,000/- and this Court has directed to deposit only an amount of Rs.10,000/-. He states that the said amount has been deposited by the petitioner and as per the directions, the respondent has already re-connected the electric supply. He states that if the interim order is to be confirmed, an amount of Rs.39,000/- should be directed to be deposited. Advocate Deshpande also pointed out that Civil Court may not have jurisdiction because of alternate remedies available under the provisions of Section 126 of the Electricity 2 Act of 2003 and bar of Section 145 thereunder. In the above circumstances, I do not find it necessary to consider the arguments of parties at length at this stage. The trial Court has only decided application below exhibit 5 filed by the present petitioner and thereafter an appeal against it, came to be dismissed. Even the suit is pending. All issues involved in that suit need to be decided by the trial Court in accordance with law. However, in these circumstances, the petitioner is directed to deposit Rs.10,000/- more with respondent without prejudice to his rights by 31st January, 2009. Subject to said deposit, the interim order granted by this Court on 5th June, 2006 is confirmed & to operate during the pendency of this civil suit. The proceedings in Civil Suit are expedited and the trial Court is directed to decide R. C. S. No. 13/2006 as early as possible and in any case by 31st December, 2009. All objections and issues including the bar of jurisdiction, if any, are kept open for consideration by the said Court. Rule accordingly. No costs. JUDGE Andurkar.
