IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE AT PATNA CWJC No.11973 of 2009 LALAN SINGH Versus THE STATE OF BIHAR & ORS ----------- 2 11.9.2009 The petitioner is aggrieved by the order dated 23.11.2006 passed in Mutation Case No.43/2004-05 by the learned Collector cum District Magistrate, Patna. The petitioner states that the mutation in favour of respondent nos. 5 to 7 has wrongly been done. It is not in dispute that the petitioner and the respondents are the descendants from a common ancestor. It appears that a Title Suit being T.S. No. 172 of 1992 is pending in the court of Sub Judge II, Danapur. The Collector has refused to interfere with the order of mutation observing that the same would involve adjudication of right and title as the subject matter of dispute is also covered under the aforesaid Title Suit. Considering the facts and circumstances of the case, this court orders as follows: i) The court of learned Sub-Judge II, Danapur would try to dispose of the aforesaid Title Suit preferably within a period of six months from the date of receipt of a copy of this order as the same is pending since 1992. ii) The mutation order would be subject to the adjudication in the Title Suit. iii) The petitioner would cooperate in the aforesaid title 2 KHAN suit. With the aforesaid observations and directions, this writ petition stands disposed of. (S.P.Singh,J)
